You may now explore [the documentation](https://docs.medusa-commerce.com/api) to learn how to interact with the Medusa API.

## ⭐️ Features
Medusa comes with a set of building blocks that allow you to create amazing digital commerce experiences, below is a list of some of the features that Medusa come with out of the box:
- **Headless**: Medusa is a highly customizable commerce API which means that you may use any presentation layer such as a website, app, chatbots, etc.
- **Regions** allow you to specify currencies, payment providers, shipping providers, tax rates and more for one or more countries for truly international sales.
- **Orders** come with all the functionality necessary to perform powerful customer service operations with ease.

- **Products** come with relevant fields for customs, stock keeping and sales. Medusa supports multiple options and unlimited variants.
- **Swaps** allow customers to exchange products after purchase (e.g. for incorrect sizes). Accounting, payment and fulfillment plugins handle all the tedious work for you for automated customer service.
- **Claims** can be created if customers experience problems with one of their products. Plugins make sure to automate sending out replacements, handling refunds and collecting valuable data for analysis.
- **Returns** allow customers to send back products and can be configured to function in a 100% automated flow through accounting and payment plugins.
- **Fulfillment API** makes it easy to integrate with any fulfillment provider by creating fulfillment plugins, check the `/packages` directory for a full list of plugins.
- **Payments API** makes it easy to integrate with any payment provider by creating payment plugins, we already support Stripe, Paypal and Klarna.
- **Notification API** allow integrations with email providers, chatbots, Slack channels, etc.
- **Customer Login** to give customers a way of managing their data, viewing their orders and saving payment details.
- **Shipping Options & Profiles** enable powerful rules for free shipping limits, multiple fulfillment methods and more.
- **Medusa's Plugin Architecture** makes it intuitive and easy to manage your integrations, switch providers and grow with ease.
- **Customization** is supported for those special use cases that all the other e-commerce platforms can't accommodate.

## Database support
In production Medusa requires Postgres and Redis, but SQLite is supported for development and testing purposes. If you plan on using Medusa for a project it is recommended that you install Postgres and Redis on your dev machine.
