Cartridge is a shopping cart application built using the [Django] framework. Cartridge also extends the [Mezzanine] content management platform.
This tag is used for questions related to the Cartridge module for the Django based Mezzanine CMS.
Cartridge is open-source software written in Python and like Mezzanine, it is licensed under a BSD license. It is used as a shopping cart solution and is closely related to Mezzanine as it builds on Mezzanine's model definitions. For example, Mezzanine defines a Page model to represent webpages and Cartridge uses subclasses of the Page model to represent products for sale. Thus, even though it can be referred to as a Django app, Cartridge is largely useless for non-Mezzanine Django projects.
