NetSuite Commerce web stores provides tools to create, test, and deploy code as extensions for SCIS. Not all of the same events and methods that are available for Commerce web stores are available in SCIS. However, the way you build extensions, using the Extensibility Layer API is the same. The following instructions describe general information about setting up your development environment and building an extension for SCIS.

Note:

Option windows and information windows can only be triggered by logic associated with front end SCIS events.

1. Install Node.js
