Document steps before deploying your first Front-Commerce application

[JulienPradet]

Before going to production, you always have to ensure that some things are in place. They are less critical to your application, but still a big part of any Front-Commerce application.

We should document:

• robots.txt
• theme colors (template/index.html, template/error.html, app-shell.html)
• static pages
  • theme/pages/Maintenance
  • theme/pages/Offiline
  • theme/pages/ServerError
  • themes/pages/NotFound)
• sitemap
• favicon
• manifest
• template/app-shell.html
• analytics
  • Google Analytics
    • npm install --save github:front-commerce/analytics.js-integration-google-analytics
    • Add integration in src/config/analytics.js

      {
              name: "google-analytics",
              needConsent: true,
              settings: {
                "Google Analytics": {
                  trackingId: "XXXXX",
                  enhancedEcommerce: true
                }
              },
              script: () =>
                require("@segment/analytics.js-integration-google-analytics")
      }
      

    • Activate Enhanced Ecommerce in Google Analytics in Admin > View > E-Commerce parameters. And add steps in checkout labelling:
      1 Addresses
      2 Shipping
      3 Payment
