It happens to us all to have good ideas but unfortunately we don't always have the time or the ability to realize them...
Instead of these ideas getting lost or dying we can share them and maybe they will be heard by someone in the free software community who is in need of inspiration but has the time and ability to realize them. ๐ค
You can also share your idea and ask if people in the community are interested in helping you make it happen.

I like this. I imagine a federated store front instance that a store could run. It would need to be highly customizable as far as how it looks, but have standardized tags for data (like Brand, Price, Discount, etc) so that information could be organized consistently. Then you have apps/websites you use to aggregate the federated store fronts into a digital mall. You have one shopping cart provided by the aggregator app/site, and the aggregator app/site could store your shipping/billing info to automatically feed to each store front you select items from when you go to check out.
