What is PrestaShop?
To put it simply, PrestaShop is a technology used to create online shopping platforms for e-commerce websites. All web developers have to do is to set up various tabs such as promotions, best sellers or payment using a foreign currency.
Prestashop is quite simple to understand and get started with. The e-commerce website’s administrators – whether they’re web developers or not – have direct access to the back-office, from which they can manage their various add-ons. So what’s so special about Prestashop? Thanks to a number of automated functions available in the back-office, it is possible to do such things as creating a page, adding a button, deleting content, etc. without any technical knowledge.
