OSC Community Contributions

Install addons to your core osc software to extend its functionality and scope. OS Commerce community contributions are free contributions and work by the OSC community of users. They are modules or extensions that can be added onto the core of the OSC software - thereby extending its flexibility and use. They include things like adding specific kinds of shipping, adding SEO header meta tags, languages, and easier ability to control your design and layout in osc.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of such contributions - freely given and extensively used. Here we will cover a few of the most popular ones and which I personally now used or have used in the past.
