OpenCart CMS是一个免费的、开源的在线管理系统，使用PHP、HTML组件和MySQL数据库构建。它的创建者是Christopher G.Mann，他早在1998年就开始从事这个项目。它最初是用Perl开发的，第一次发布是在1999年5月。然而，在2000年，所有的进展都停止了，五年后域名过期了。Daniel Kerr认为这是一个完美的机会，可以将其作为自己用PHP编写的电子商务软件的基石。他在2009年2月发布了第一个稳定版本。

OpenCart CMS迅速开始流行起来，2015年4月，据记录，它占全球电子商务量的6.42%。这实际上意味着它成功地超越了ZenCart和Shopify等其他流行的电子商务软件。2017年，Daniel Kerr宣布有超过317.000个网站正在使用opencart作为商店CMS，并设法超越Magento。

OpenCart CMS is a free, open source online management system built using PHP, HTML components and a MySQL database. Its creator was Christopher G. Mann who started working on the project back in 1998. It was initially developed in Perl and its first release was in May 1999. However, in 2000 all progress stopped and five years later the domain name expired. Daniel Kerr saw it as the perfect opportunity to use it as a cornerstone for his own e-commerce software, written in PHP. He released the first stable version in February 2009.

OpenCart CMS quickly started gaining popularity and in April 2015 it was recorded as responsible for 6.42% of the global e-commerce volumes. What this actually means is that it managed to surpass other popular ecommerce softwares such as ZenCart and Shopify. In 2017 Daniel Kerr announced that there are over 317.000 website who are using opencart as a shop CMS, managing to also surpass Magento.
