Satchmo Screencast
Satchmo is an amazing E-Commerce engine built on top of Django. After struggling in the past with difficult packages like ZenCart and OSCommerce, Satchmo’s ease of customization make it a joy to work with.
Unfortunately, all the features can make the administration interface a bit daunting at first glance. I created a screencast to help shop owners get started with the process of adding products and product variations in Satchmo. I’m using the latest release as of this writing (0.8.1).

@HenrikJoreteg +1 on scansnap & evernote. almost seamless. Only complaint: each scan opens a new evernote window when scanning many docs

Selenium RC is amazing! After groking it, I had an EC2 instance and taking screenshots of our sites in the big 5 browsers in about 30 min.

Awesome demo. This process can be a bit tricky to describe so your screencast is a very welcome addition.
Thanks for doing it!
Great demo Peter!
Satchmo is truly one of the amazing django apps available – great code, amazing features. Both Chris, Bruce and the Satchmo community deserve kudos!
It’s really an great django application.
Thanks so much for giving us this demonstration.
Thank you so much. Your screencast was really helpful to understand.
Thanks Peter! Your demo helped me create variations which I could not do before! Satchmo WOULD be brilliant if it contained “real” documentation alongside the descriptions given in the satchmo site documentation!
This was very helpful. Could you also do a piece on what Satchmo is capable of in terms of how functions with the operational aspect of business, i.e., inventory tracking, accounting, ordering products, alerts when inventory is low or absent, etc.? This would be fab…I am trying to decide between Satchmo & Magento, with low budget.
Thanks!
