#Reaction

Reaction is a modern reactive, real-time event driven ecommerce platform.

Reaction is built with JavaScript, Meteor, Node.js and works nicely with Docker.

See: [Package Repository for Reaction] (https://atmospherejs.com/?q=reactioncommerce)

##Status

• 0.6.4 Master (Alpha, Stable)
• 0.7.0 Development (Not Stable)
• 0.8.0 Next Stable Release

Currently good for contributing/observing progress, testing. It goes without saying that we're constantly refactoring, even things that are functionally done. We do not recommend using for production usage yet, unless you are very comfortable with the code, and aren't risk averse. There are still many parts in development!

The Docker image is automatically built at the Ongo Works public Docker repo, on any master repository changes. We're working on functionality to allow selectable Reaction/Docker images in the future.

##Installation

Node.js and NPM are required. Install from http://nodejs.org/

To install Meteor + Reaction, and start the latest release:

curl https://install.meteor.com | /bin/sh
git clone https://github.com/reactioncommerce/reaction.git
cd reaction && git checkout master
meteor

There is also an executable script that you run. Additional installation options are in the developer documentation.

Note: for windows installation you also need:

• OpenSSL
• Visual Studio 2008 redistributables
• Git + mysgit
• ImageMagick

##Roadmap

As with all development, some items are ahead of schedule, and some are not. Here's how to get the details:
