The eCommerce app found within the
special purpose directory is more of a demo-case rather than a complete
store. It gives you all the functions you could ask for, but is agreeably
very very difficult to use for smaller stores. Usually, people who want to
use the OFBiz ERP Framework for something like this they:
a) Either take the ecommerce component and reduce/simplify on their own
or
b) Turn to Third-Party implementers and use one of their standardized
components.
As an example for the latter: we on our hand have created our own simplified
store, which you can take a sneak-peek here: http://www.syracus.net . It
comes with some advanced features, like a fully integrated Solr Search,
facetted navigation, responsive design and so on. There's been some
discussions whether one of the agencies may contribute their own store to
the project, but at the moment it is as it is ;)
It makes a very good impression (http://www.syracus.net) - thank you.
What I am interested in are sources of such solutions one could use
after few minor modifications. BigFish source is a nice example however
a bit complex for the start (for me yet).
The OFBiz framework makes a *very* good impression however with long
learning curve. I am missing examples (open sources) of ready to go
(with minor changes) OFBiz applications. I have found already some free
available documentation but I need some time more to study it en détail
(deeper).
I guess there are also some open solutions for websites and special
portal solutions like eg. *uPortal*.
Apart from that: I can highly recommend both books and in particular the
beginners tutorial.
I am not sure about the second book (*Apache OfBiz Cookbook* from
packtpbub.com):
*Apache OFBiz Development: The Beginner's Tutorial* [eBook]

Or do you mean some other books like:
The Data Model Resource Book, *Vol. 1*: A Library of Universal Data
Models for All Enterprises
The Data Model Resource Book, *Vol. 2*: A Library of Data Models for
Specific Industries
The Data Model Resource Book, *Vol. 3*: Universal Patterns for Data
Modeling
There is also another book:
Title: *OFBiz E-Commerce Out-Of-The-Box* Author: Ruth Hoffman
Publication Date: Winter 2011
I don't have the possiblity just to look inside them as they are locally
not available in book stores here (Zürich).
P.S.: Da du ja deutsch zu seien scheinst - Wenn Du magst kannst Du natürlich
auch gerne einmal durchrufen. Dann kann ich dir vielleicht ein paar gute
Tipps geben.
Vielen Dank. Ich schreibe Dir direkt (falls es für Dich OK ist).
Thank you in advance for feedback like ideas or hints.
regards, Mark
