Thelia

Thelia is an open-source e-commerce platform for building custom online stores and managing associated content. Built for extensibility and interoperability, it supports modular customization and API-based integrations with external business systems.

Key Features

• Customizable e-commerce storefront and back office for managing catalog, orders, and content
• Modular architecture with an ecosystem of community modules and extensions
• Symfony-based stack with modern templating for building tailored front ends
• Standardized APIs (via API Platform) to integrate with ERP, PIM, CRM, DAM, and logistics tools
• Installation wizard and CLI tooling for setup and maintenance

Use Cases

• Building bespoke e-commerce sites with custom business logic and themes
• Headless or API-driven commerce integrated into an existing information system
• Click-and-collect, drive-through commerce, and store picking workflows

Limitations and Considerations

• Docker and docker-compose configuration provided in the repository is not production-ready
• Compatibility depends on the specific Thelia version (notably PHP and database versions)

Thelia is well suited for teams that need full control over their commerce stack, prefer a Symfony ecosystem, and want long-term flexibility through open standards and modular extensions.
