I'm working on a Shopify alternative[0] as part of this decentralized marketplace. If adding support for CommerceTXT is not too difficult, I wouldn't mind adding it.

That would be a fantastic first implementation. Openship is exactly the kind of architecture CommerceTXT is built for. Integration is straightforward: it’s essentially just a new 'View' layer. Instead of rendering HTML, you render a .txt endpoint that maps your existing product DB to our fields. I'll head over to your repo and open an Issue to discuss how we can map Openfront's data to the spec. I'd be happy to guide the implementation myself. Let's get this moving!
