Since the very beginning of Atwix we’ve been focusing on quality. Because the quality approach is an evolutionary process, we’re constantly improving our expertise through actual practice. As a brilliant example, Atwix has been a TOP contributor to  Magento 2 Open Source for four years (!) since 2018.

Over the years, we were observing the patterns in the development community that could slow down the development process, increase the code price or even reduce the code quality.

As a long time community contributor, we at Atwix, wanted to solve this issue.

Please, welcome and cherish the Atwix Magento 2 PhpStorm plugin, a tool that reduces the time for solution delivery and the price of a line of code. 

DISCLAIMER: This blog is my personal reflection on Meet Magento New York 2022 and the Magento Open Source. It doesn’t represent an official point of view of any organization.

Those who tracked happenings of the Magento OS world, saw the MA’s Open Source task force creation a year ago. This was a foundational step bringing together key parties in an open and honest setting. Regular meetings have ensued. Shortly after the task force launched, Mage OS fork/association was founded, due to a slice of the Magento community feeling a better way forward existed to best ensure innovation. 

A fabulous yacht pulled out of NYC’s Chelsea pier, gracefully slicing through the Hudson River’s choppy waters. A crowd was drinking their morning coffee while taking in the inviting view of the Statue of Liberty in the distance. No, this was not a fancy regatta – this was Meet Magento New York 2022 – the first in-person community-driven Magento conference in the US since Covid-19. Naturally, I couldn’t miss the opportunity to reconnect live and in-person with our community.

If you haven’t heard about MACH, let us elaborate on what it stands for. By searching the internet, you may find that “MACH number (M or Ma) is a dimensionless quantity in fluid dynamics representing the ratio of flow velocity past a boundary to the local speed of sound.” 

While that MACH is named after Moravian physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach, our MACH is from the Information Technologies world :)

Last month Gartner released 2022’s version of their Magic Quadrant for Digital Commerce. While many platforms that made it to the Quadrant charged ahead with press releases celebrating success, something else intrigued me. It’s not a snapshot in time that is most interesting, it’s the dynamic that tells us an unabridged story. So I went ahead and put together an overlay of the fresh edition over last year’s one. Whoa! Things look a whole lot more interesting now. Let’s unpack.

With more and more ERP providers releasing their Cloud versions, we wanted to make a list of both cloud, and self-hosted popular ERP’s to Integrate with Magento, briefly describing features for each one.

Most of our readers know that Magento has security, cloud, quality, and custom patches that can be installed to fix particular website issues on Adobe Commerce or Magento Open Source platforms. 

In this post, we’ll speak about the tool released by Adobe to apply quality patches and work with them – Quality Patches Tool (QPT). In addition, we’ll describe how to use QPT on different Magento platforms and the existing best practices.

What is the best Commerce platform to use? To answer this question, you need to know how to differentiate them. Brief example, did you know that there’re SaaS and Open-source eCommerce platforms?

If you run a Magento 2 store, you most probably want as much relevant traffic to your storefront as possible. And organic SEO traffic is one of the gold mines of such traffic sources. So in this post, we gathered the most popular Magento 2 SEO Plugins and Extensions.
