  Demandware is the cloud commerce platform now sold by Salesforce as Salesforce
  B2C Commerce Cloud. Founded in 2004 and taken public on the NYSE (DWRE) in 2012,
  Demandware was acquired by Salesforce in 2016 for roughly $2.8B and rebranded as
  Salesforce Commerce Cloud. Its developer surface centers on two REST API families:
  the modern B2C Commerce API (SCAPI) — Shopper APIs, Admin APIs, and the Shopper
  Login and API Access Service (SLAS) — published as OpenAPI, and the older Open
  Commerce API (OCAPI, now deprecated) with its Shop, Data, and Meta APIs. The
  platform ships first-party SDKs (commerce-sdk, commerce-sdk-isomorphic, PWA Kit),
  a B2C CLI (sfcc-ci and the newer @salesforce/b2c-cli), a developer-experience MCP
  server, packaged Agent Skills, and Account Manager / SLAS OAuth2 authentication.
