Caching
WooCommerce-aware caching that respects carts
Product pages cached aggressively at the edge. Carts and checkouts never. Customers see live stock and accurate totals, you get full edge speed for browsing.
- Product pages: edge-cached for instant load
- Cart, checkout, my-account: always bypass
- Cache invalidation on product/stock change
- Per-user session caching where useful
