Vocabulary
Commerce drop-in components
Full-featured shopping components that turn websites into storefronts. Drop-in components are not primitive components, like Carousels and Galleries. They provide the entire storefront shopping experience for a website using pages and other commerce features.
Commerce blocks
The integration of Commerce drop-in components into the Edge Delivery Services architecture of JavaScript blocks and document-based authoring. Commerce blocks are the components that provide the content and layout for commerce pages in the storefront.
Content blocks
The Edge Delivery components that provide the content and layout for non-commerce pages in the storefront. These include Cards, Columns, Headers, Footers, and many more. Visit the Adobe Experience Manager Block Collection section for the details.
Start exploring
Run your storefront locally using the npm start command and use the table below to see how each boilerplate page has a corresponding Commerce block, which wraps the drop-in (or widget) that provides the block with its features and functions.
Relationship between the Commerce blocks and drop-in components
In the following table, the first column of links won’t resolve unless you have your storefront running locally on port 3000. The second column links to the Commerce block code in the boilerplate repository, and the third column links to the drop-in/widget code that powers the block.
