**Clarification: Level 1 Compatibility** Following ADDON_BRIDGE_PATTERN.md philosophy: **3-Level Compatibility Strategy:** Level 1: Native WP/WooCommerce Hooks 🟢 (THIS IMPLEMENTATION) - Community does NOTHING extra - Plugins use standard add_meta_box(), update_post_meta() - WooNooW listens and exposes data automatically - Status: ❌ NOT IMPLEMENTED - MUST DO NOW Level 2: Bridge Snippets 🟡 (Already documented) - For non-standard behavior (e.g., Rajaongkir custom UI) - Community creates simple bridge - WooNooW provides hook system + docs - Status: ✅ Hook system exists Level 3: Native WooNooW Addons 🔵 (Already documented) - Best experience, native integration - Community builds proper addons - Status: ✅ Addon system exists **Key Principle:** We are NOT asking community to create WooNooW-specific addons. We are asking them to use standard WooCommerce hooks. We LISTEN and INTEGRATE automatically. **Example (Level 1):** Plugin stores: update_post_meta($order_id, '_tracking_number', $value) WooNooW: Exposes via API automatically Result: Plugin works WITHOUT any extra effort **Updated METABOX_COMPAT.md:** - Added 3-level strategy overview - Clarified Level 1 is about listening to standard hooks - Emphasized community does NOTHING extra - Aligned with ADDON_BRIDGE_PATTERN.md philosophy **Confirmation:** ✅ Yes, we MUST implement Level 1 now ✅ This is about listening to WooCommerce bone ✅ Not about special integration ✅ Community uses standard hooks, we listen
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 |
