description Ubercart Overview
Ubercart is an open-source e-commerce module for the Drupal content management system, originally released to provide shopping cart and online store functionality within Drupal websites. It allowed site administrators to sell physical products, digital downloads, and services directly through their Drupal-powered sites, integrating with various payment gateways and shipping calculators. Ubercart was eventually succeeded by Drupal Commerce, and while it remains available, it is considered a legacy solution primarily used on older Drupal installations.
