International version support
I just spotted a Japanese YT video - wondering if other langagues specific requriements are taken care of already (including int characters in URLs / encoding - no % in urls)

Plus... just wondering why "many" testers mention that fCart might be ready for Digital Products but not a Phisical Products. If there is a gap it would be nice to address it now so later there it not too much noice about it.
Also it would be nice to watch a video how a newbee can integrate a license key from his store into other app, wordpress website just to see the end-to-end process - it might be really useful to see this step by step process.
ps. payment gateways can be a bottle next to a country's specific preferences and having a shop without using preferred payment processors can be a temp stopper.
Mat you're reading my mind...asked myself the whole day how someone might integrate sold licenses into ones website? in my case i would like to sell a company a license to watch my online courses, which they can use for let's say 25 of their staff-members....in my case the license would allow not more than 25 people to register as a wordpress user on my site....no clue, how i could combine licenses with wordpress user....
Physical Products: if you want to sell physical products, the basic shipment (which we currently only have in FCArt) is totally useless....we definitely need robust advanced shipment options (by weight, price, etc.), to really be able to sell physical products.....and we definitely need tax for digital and physical products....but hopefully all of this is coming until launch
I believe a lot of this is on how focused the UI is on digital products vs physical products. Creating a balance between the two is important or else people will think that Fluent Cart is mainly for digital products and subscriptions.
WooCommerce has a huge user base with a lot of plugins which support a wide variety of payments and shipping methods making it easier for various countries to find plugins that fit with a digital shop for the specific country. An example here in Norway there is a plugin that connects with the local post service as well as specific Nordic payment method.
Fluent Cart at this stage will need to focus on the broad perspective. Then over time be able to narrow things down just a little. They also need to focus on having an API in which we can example use AI to create a connection with local shipping methods and local payment methods etc. I also believe we will need to find a way to share openly either code snippets or plugins that will help extend Fluent Cart. When Fluent Cart covers our basic needs then we can also use it and extend it. With our help Fluent Cart will also quicker be able to become adapted to various user needs.
NB! I adjusted the comment. I was working with Fluent Forms and wrote Form instead of Fluent Cart. I have adjusted the above.
