Why Magento 2?

Let us see the improvements in Magento 2.
  • Documentation: Much more extensive developer documentation for Magento 2 has now been published on their website, targeted to all Front-end Developers, Back-end Developers, Solution Specialists, and Magento Admin Users. Several blog articles and guidelines are also available on Magento website, and the entire codebase is now versioned and published in GitHub, not to mention the issue and bug tracking systems being adopted, and free online on-demand courses offered by Magento as part of the introduction to Magento2 development program.
  • Performance and scalability: Full Page Caching (so far probably the biggest game-changer in terms of performance, a feature so far only available to Enterprise customers in Magento1) has now been completely reworked and is provided out of the box also in Magento2 Community Edition. Database support – even though still in MySQL realm (possible future integration with other DBMSs has been announced) – has also been reworked, to allow splitting data belonging to distinct areas of the application (catalogue, sales/checkout, etc.) in different servers, reducing bottlenecks and improving performance and scalability. Native support for Varnish Cache services has been added to boost the speed of the Magento2 websites, and business logic and data have been further separated from the presentation layer, allowing more efficient and less painful caching. Most of the static content can now be compiled before-hand, ready to be served as-is to the browsers, reducing the load on the infrastructure and allowing even more efficient caching.Magento2 natively supports PHP7 and HHVM (both featuring significantly better performance over PHP code parsing and execution) and provides out-of-the-box Redis cache backend support.

 

  • Technology:HTML4 and CSS, no LESS or SASS support, no composer, no automated testing support, no Javascript model/view support, and not even jQuery or responsiveness (until the most recent releases featuring RWD themes, and still part of the platform was relying on PrototypeJS), not to mention support for mobile devices, SEO and data/business logic separation from the presentation layer, and many other features commonly adopted by web development community.Magento2 has added support for (and sometimes even forced the use of) some of the most recent web technologies, as asynchronous resource load with dependency management (RequireJS), mobile and responsive browser support, HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript-based dynamic interactions with the integrated, declarative templating system and Model-View-View-Controller programming patterns (KnockOutJS). Support for Compass, Grunt, LESS and media queries has also been introduced, as well as application modes (namely default, developer and production).PHP namespaces, API definitions, Service Contracts and Object Factory programming patterns have been implemented all over the Core code, Interceptors and Dependency Injection allow for static code compilation, better and safer extensibility and customisation.Support for Automated Testing has also been added, covering most of the core functionalities but also giving extension developers a useful tool, to ensure a better quality of their code.

 

  • User experience: Important parts of the application, like checkout, have been completely reworked and necessitate now of less interaction at visitor’s side, the checkout process itself is much more linear and simplified, focussing on driving users to the purchase completion. Caching has also been significantly improved in these areas, as compared to Magento1, where page caching was practically disabled all along the checkout process.
