Hoe maak je een nieuw Product in Magento 2?

Choosing a product type is one of the first things that you must do to create a product. If you are just beginning to construct your product catalog, you can create a few sample products to experiment with each product type. In addition to the basic product types, the term complex product is sometimes used to refer to products with multiple options, such as a configurable product that is available in various colors and sizes.

Product types

Simple product - A simple product is a physical item with a single SKU. Simple products have various pricing and of input controls which makes it possible to sell variations of the product. Simple products can be used in association with grouped, bundle, and configurable products.

Configurable product - A configurable product appears to be a single product with lists of options for each variation. However, each option represents a separate, simple product with a distinct SKU, which makes it possible to track inventory for each variation.

Grouped product - A grouped product presents multiple, standalone products as a group. You can offer variations of a single product, or group them for a promotion. The products can be purchased separately or as a group.

Virtual products - A virtual product is not a tangible product, and is typically used for products such as services, memberships, warranties, and subscriptions. Virtual products can be used in association with grouped and bundle products.

Bundle product - A bundle product lets customers “build their own” from an assortment of options. The bundle could be a gift basket, computer, or anything else that can be customized. Each item in the bundle is a separate, standalone product.

Downloadable product - A digitally downloadable product consists of one or more files that are downloaded. The files can reside on your server or be provided as URLs to any other server.

Gift card - (Adobe Commerce only) There are three kinds of gift cards. Virtual gift cards are sent by email. Physical gift cards are shipped to the recipient. Combined gift cards that are a combination of virtual and physical. Each has a unique code, which is redeemed during checkout. Gift cards can also be included in a grouped product.
