OPEN-SOURCE / COMMERCE

Commerce systems

Start with how you sell. Then choose how to build.

From a conventional store to custom API-driven commerce, these five projects offer different starting points. Payments, shipping, invoicing and maintenance need project-specific validation.

GPL-2.0

WooCommerce

An open-source commerce platform built on WordPress.

GitHub ↗

When to consider it

A candidate for teams combining an existing WordPress site with commerce.

What needs checking

Plugins, payment, shipping and upgrade compatibility need validation; open source does not remove operating costs.

Read upstream license ↗

OSL-3.0 core; AFL-3.0 modules

PrestaShop

An open-source platform focused on running an online store.

GitHub ↗

When to consider it

A candidate for teams prioritizing store administration and module-based extension.

What needs checking

Core and module licenses differ; local payments, invoices and shipping modules require separate validation.

Read upstream license ↗

BSD-3-Clause

Saleor

An API-first headless commerce backend.

GitHub ↗

When to consider it

A candidate for engineering teams building custom storefronts and system integrations.

What needs checking

Storefront and operational services require integration; this is not a no-development complete store.

Read upstream license ↗

GPL-3.0-or-later community; commercial option

Vendure

A headless commerce platform built with TypeScript and GraphQL.

GitHub ↗

When to consider it

A candidate for TypeScript teams with custom commerce logic and API requirements.

What needs checking

Community and commercial licensing differ; storefront, deployment and extensions require engineering.

MIT

myCart

A lightweight shopping cart project designed around a single executable.

GitHub ↗

When to consider it

A candidate for a small, tightly scoped store with hands-on maintenance and workflow testing.

What needs checking

Validate inventory, refunds, backups and local payments/shipping; this suggestion does not certify live payment readiness.
