Is a woocommerce an easy manage ecommerce system?

Looks like it is so hard to change the layout. You no longer see html css. Instead you have to write script like add_action, remove_action. I still haven't figured out how to add a div wrap around module.

What do you guys think?

Hi Luke, I've used WC on a few projects and it works well most of the time. I choose this e-commerce plugin because I needed to calculate strange shipping methods, EU VAT/tax and also had to add additional payment gateway fees - all of these are possible with plugins.

Regarding styling, I would recommend using a child theme and then capturing the required divs using a developer tool (Chome > F12 for example). If you are just styling (rather than changing the function of WC), you shouldn't need to add any code aprat of CSS code.
