Three panels, one codebase
Admin, Store owner and Vendor panels, each scoped to its own data on the server.
Features
Everything a serious store needs, in one open-source .NET platform — B2C and B2B, one store or many, your products or a marketplace.
What sets GrandNode apart
More than simple products
Auctions, reservations, bundles, courses and digital goods are built in, not add-ons.
B2B in the core
Company sub-accounts, sales employees, group and per-customer prices, order limits and impersonation.
Headless-ready
An OpenAPI-documented Backend API with OData-style queries, and a Frontend API on the real storefront logic.
AI Agent Kit
AGENTS.md and the .ai/ folder teach your coding agent GrandNode's architecture, rules and checklists.
Modern .NET stack
.NET 10, MongoDB, Redis-synced cache, Docker and Aspire, OpenTelemetry, thousands of unit tests.
