All that is required to effectively customize phpShop is a basic knowledge of HTML, PHP, and SQL.
The original developers of phpShop needed to build a shopping cart web site. A search for an open source solution was conducted and it was found that several solutions were available. However, they found that many of the solutions were much too primitive. Other solutions were fairly complete but much too complicated to learn since they used their own tag language or were based on early CGI scripting languages. And most importantly, the solutions were dificult to customize. What the developers really needed was a shopping cart that:
* was easy to customize.
* had source code that was easy to understand.
* was based on a programming language that was easy to learn.
* was easy to design new layouts in a web page design program.
