In plain words

Formance is an open source, low-code platform that helps developers build and manage custom payment flows. It provides pre-built templates for common payment scenarios and tracks all transactions through a reliable ledger system.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.

The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly.
