Many features of Maropost Commerce Cloud's front end are controlled by Javascript files that are not included in themes. For this reason, it can be risky making Javascript changes to Sekeletal, or any theme, as you could break something that you cannot fix. This is especially the case when updating dependencies like Bootstrap or JQuery.
In this document is a list of all functions beyond a front-end developers control, and how to test them.
Maropost Commerce Cloud features an address book feature which allows users who are logged in to add, edit and remove postage addresses to their account. This can be done both from the checkout and from the accounts page.

- Removing an entry from the address book
- Selecting an entry in the address book on the checkout
