Nice, I'll take a look. I was thinking about building a benchmark similar to the one you described, but first focusing on the negotiation between the store and the product suppliers.

Does your software also handle this type of task?

Yes, the Shopify alternative is called Openfront[0]. Before that, I built Openship[1], an e-commerce OMS that connects Openfront (and other e-commerce platforms) to fulfillment channels like print on demand. There isn’t negotiation built in but you connect to something like Gelato[2] and when you get orders on Openfront, they are sent to Gelato to fulfill and once they ship them, tracking’s relayed back to Openfront through Openship.
