Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This is an e-commerce module for processing payment using Braintree Payments if you do not feel like using an entire store like Ubercart or Commerce. It also is an e-book creator ("wizard") in which the site admin can click through a series of UI options and then have a pay-per-chapter/content "book" with a pre-made table of contents and teaser + "pay to read full article" for each chapter/node.

I made some of this functionality for a client in a module. Afterwards, I planned to release this limited module to Drupal 8 when it was released and stable. After talking to some Drupal folks, they told me just to go ahead and get community input and release it to Drupal 7. I am expanding it from its original usage for a wider capacity of usage.

“It is also harder to figure out what exactly to build but I believe there are big opportunities around e-commerce tools and marketing tools.” -Dries from his recent Reddit AMA

The vision is a way to sell things using Drupal on-site without any other module dependencies (except for SSL if you choose). A sort-of "plug-in-play" e-book/paywall generator for less technically inclined. I do not plan on making this module extensible like the great Commerce eco-system, just a simple solution to the problem.

I am committed to releasing a stable version of this module in February 2014 and working on it every week night therein.

This is close to ready for production use yet, and I will be posting issues in the issue queue about items I want to fix/add/improve. If you have ideas, the module is still being formed. Keep in mind, I don't want to add module requirements if I can help it and I want to execute and release in February.

This is the sister module to the InstantStripe module I am developing. I will finish the Stripe module before I start on this one.
