I am a co-founder of Medusa Commerce; we have bult a developer-focused open-source headless alternative to Shopify in Node.js with the aim of making headless commerce solutions more accessible.
So far, the interest from developers has been amazing, in only 2 months we have achieved:
🌟 +1,700 stars on GitHub (+150% growth WoW)
😻 +300 community members in our Discord (coming from 0)
🎯 +100 community pull-request in the period
The solution comes with an easy-to-use admin dashboard for the end-users and a lot of pre-built integrations to CMS systems, payment providers, shipping providers etc. to make it easy to get started.
Hope you will support and follow our journey. Cannot wait to keep you updated!

I run a parcel tracking saas. Are we able to integrate with your stack ?
Hi WindMill - that sounds really interesting, would very much like to explore the opportunity of an integration. Could you share some more info on the parcel tracking tool?
In general, we have purposefully set up our stack to be easy to integrate with exactly to support this type of composability
Love that you went open source. Looks like a great solution I’d be interested in playing around with. Great work and thanks for sharing!
Thanks Edan - appreciate it! If you are interested, then we would very much like to hear about your experiences building with it on our Discord: https://discord.gg/F87eGuwkTp
Thumbs up for taking the open-source approach. Really cool project and love the traction you have already been building. Looking forward to follow!
Thanks a lot - we do our best to put our community first with our solution!
Great job OP, Medusa looks great! Framing it as an open-source shopify alternative is a bit misleading though.
Shopify's main feature is that they host your store for you and get you up and running in no time which isn't the case for Medusa. Headless is your differentiator IMO so maybe "Headless Magento" is a better title, albeit less catchy.
Awesome work Nicklas, I am a HUGE fan of open source. At Motionbox it's my goal to give back as much as possible.
I noticed you have a code example UI, if you're using React I open sourced a code typing component similar to Stripes marketing UI.
I'd love to share it with you and hope it helps https://github.com/bluematter/react-code-ui
Keep up the awesome work, I will shout your project out anytime I can :)
That is super cool - and love that you have open-sourced it as well, nice job! We were actually looking to build the type of "code snippet" videos you have on the front-page of your repo. Do you have an easy tool for building these? :-)
You mean the typing code effect? That is what this repo is, simply run
yarn install react-code-ui
import Code from "react-code-ui
<Code code={'const somecode = "yay"'}
Or did you mean something else?
