Magento in the age of 2
summary
Magento 2 is a rewritten, modular PHP e‑commerce platform that already powers 150,000 stores and moves roughly $50B/year. It uses Composer, constructor dependency injection, generated classes from plugins, a CLI built on Symfony Console, built‑in test suites, native full‑page Varnish caching, a service layer and UI components for dynamic admin grids. Migrating from Magento 1 requires theme rebuilds and extension rewrites; Magento provides data conversion tools, Vagrant/Docker developer images and a hosted PaaS with CDN and diagnostics.
