Is Woocommerce suitable for creating a Classify project on Wordpress?

Question

WordPress

I plan to make a small website for my hobby (collecting), which will contain a catalog of entities consisting of a set of other entities, which, in turn, may include entities of an even lower level. Each entity has its own set of attributes.

I do not plan to sell from this site. At least for the time being, it may not be superfluous for the future, but I do not set such a goal for myself now.
But filtering and something like a favorites list will come in very handy.
Perhaps in the future it will be necessary to allow users to publish their own entity items (each will have its own directory).

Basically, use Wordpress as a CMS. (therefore, answers in the spirit of “why do you need this g ...” or “write it yourself” will not help me.

Question:

• What is the best way to implement such a directory?
  
• Is Woocommerce suitable for this or are there better extensions for creating this kind of catalogs?
  

Answer 1

You can also use Woomers, but, in principle, with a little coding, then most of your requests are solved through Wordpress, ACF and custom post types (posts and taxonomies).
1) Entity catalog (post types and taxonomies) - https://wp-kama.ru/function/register_post_type
2) Own set of attributes - ACF - https://acfwp.ru/category/documentation/
3) Attribute filtering. How to make such a filter ( wordpress + acf )? Is there a ready-made post filter by additional fields (Advanced Custom Fields plugin) for Wordpress?
Here you can imagine a lot. Or even through AJAX to make a filter.
4) Favorite List - How to implement adding posts to WordPress favorites? or write an analog yourself
5) Personal account. It’s more complicated here, but ... You can take something like WP-RECALL (or any other plug-in for your personal user account), and use it as a basis to rewrite it for yourself ...
In general, there will be a lot of trouble if you make it on Wookomers (since you will need to cut out 90 percent of the functions from there, and the gain, in fact, is only in the new post type, taxonomies, and, perhaps, a certain number of ready-made plugins that you still have to rewrite for yourself). In the case of WordPress + ACF, it will take longer to plan the architecture of your site, but it will be easier (although this is also subjective).
Although I would not use Vukomers, but you know better there.
