Implemented: Frontend Components for Level 1 Compatibility Created Components: - MetaFields.tsx - Generic meta field renderer - useMetaFields.ts - Hook for field registry Integrated Into: - Orders/Edit.tsx - Meta fields after OrderForm - Products/Edit.tsx - Meta fields after ProductForm Features: - Supports: text, textarea, number, date, select, checkbox - Groups fields by section - Zero coupling with specific plugins - Renders any registered fields dynamically - Read-only mode support How It Works: 1. Backend exposes meta via API (Phase 1) 2. PHP registers fields via MetaFieldsRegistry (Phase 3 - next) 3. Fields localized to window.WooNooWMetaFields 4. useMetaFields hook reads registry 5. MetaFields component renders fields 6. User edits fields 7. Form submission includes meta 8. Backend saves via update_order_meta_data() Result: - Generic, reusable components - Zero plugin-specific code - Works with any registered fields - Clean separation of concerns Next: Phase 3 - PHP MetaFieldsRegistry system
WooNooW
WooNooW is a modern experience layer for WooCommerce — enhancing UX, speed, and reliability without data migration.
It keeps WooCommerce as the core engine while providing a modern React-powered interface for both the storefront (cart, checkout, my‑account) and the admin (orders, dashboard).
Three Admin Modes:
- Normal Mode: Traditional wp-admin integration (
/wp-admin/admin.php?page=woonoow) - Fullscreen Mode: Distraction-free interface (toggle in header)
- Standalone Mode: Complete standalone app at
yoursite.com/adminwith custom login ✨
🔍 Background
WooCommerce is the most used e‑commerce engine in the world, but its architecture has become heavy and fragmented.
With React‑based blocks (Checkout, Cart, Product Edit) and HPOS now rolling out, many existing addons are becoming obsolete or unstable.
WooNooW bridges the gap between Woo’s legacy PHP system and the new modern stack — so users get performance and simplicity without losing compatibility.
🚀 Key Principles
- No Migration Needed – Woo data stays intact.
- Safe Activate/Deactivate – revert to native Woo anytime, no data loss.
- Hybrid by Default – SSR + React islands for Cart/Checkout/My‑Account.
- Full SPA Toggle – optional React‑only mode for max performance.
- HPOS Mandatory – optimized datastore and async operations.
- Compat Layer – hook mirror + slot rendering for legacy addons.
- Async Mail & Tasks – powered by Action Scheduler.
🧱 Tech Stack
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| Backend | PHP 8.2+, WordPress, WooCommerce (HPOS), Action Scheduler |
| Frontend | React 18 + TypeScript, Vite, React Query, Tailwind (optional) |
| Build & Package | Composer, NPM, ESM scripts, Zip automation |
| Architecture | Modular PSR‑4 classes, REST‑driven SPA islands |
