## Notes

Snipcart is a hosted shopping cart and checkout. A website adds the cart with a script, and the cart runs in the visitor's browser. Merchants manage orders in a dashboard that the company hosts, and developers can connect the cart to other systems through a [REST API](https://snipcart.com/ecommerce-api), a JavaScript API and webhooks. The cart can be translated into any language. The company, Snipcart inc., describes itself as built in Canada.

## Worth knowing

The dashboard is hosted on the company's servers and does not run on the merchant's site.
