Shopify

Overview

Shopify is the leading e-commerce platform — from simple stores to enterprise. Build custom themes with Liquid templating (no backend needed, employees can edit content through the admin panel), extend functionality with custom apps via the Admin and Storefront APIs, or go fully headless with Hydrogen (React/Remix). Covers the full spectrum: zero-code store setup, theme customization, API integrations, and custom headless storefronts.

When to Use

• Building an online store (products, cart, checkout, payments)
• Customizing Shopify themes (layout, design, sections)
• Building custom functionality (apps, integrations, webhooks)
• Headless commerce (custom frontend, Shopify as backend)
• Staff-manageable stores where non-technical people update products and content
