In depth

How we approach Shopify development

Theme, app or headless

Most stores do best with a well-built Online Store 2.0 theme, which is cheaper to run and easy for your team to manage. Headless with Hydrogen makes sense when you need a highly custom experience, content from several sources or very fast pages at scale.

Fewer apps, faster store

Every installed app can add scripts that slow your store down. We review your app list, replace what we can with lightweight theme code or a single custom app, and keep only what earns its place.

Migrations without losing rankings

We map every old URL to its new one, keep product data and customer accounts intact and set up 301 redirects before launch. That protects the search traffic you have already built.

Built for Shopify Plus

For Shopify Plus merchants we build checkout extensions, Shopify Functions for discounts and shipping rules, B2B features and multi-store setups. The code follows Shopify's current APIs, so it keeps working through platform updates.
