Experimental Products App

This package is a prototype for the work tracked in Epic: Improve Product Catalog Management Experience.

It is used to explore a faster, more scalable All Products experience in WooCommerce, especially for stores with large catalogs.

Current areas of exploration:

• A more flexible table-based product view
• Better filtering, sorting, and scanning
• Inline handling of product variations
• Faster quick edit and bulk edit flows
• A clearer extension surface for integrations

Try It Quickly

You can try the experimental products app in WordPress Playground.

The shared Blueprint:

• Installs WooCommerce nightly, Gutenberg, and WooCommerce Beta Tester
• Enables the required feature flags
• Imports WooCommerce sample products from CSV
• Opens the experimental products dashboard directly

DataViews Dependency

This package currently uses a custom build of @wordpress/dataviews from WordPress/gutenberg#77905. The package is installed from the tarball referenced in package.json so the prototype can use the new table tree hierarchy API before it is available in a published WordPress package release.

The custom build is expected to be temporary. Once the DataViews hierarchy changes are published in the regular @wordpress/dataviews package, replace the tarball dependency with the published version and refresh pnpm-lock.yaml.
