Technical FAQ
Everything you need to know about custom Shopify development, speed optimization, and e-commerce scaling. Select a category below to browse specific queries.
// Custom Development
We write clean, zero-bloat HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript combined with liquid theme files. We strictly avoid heavy page builders and bulky CSS frameworks to protect speed indices.
Yes, we construct all themes using Shopify Online Store 2.0 section architecture, letting your team add, move, and edit visual blocks without coding.
Absolutely. We protect intellectual property and sign standard Non-Disclosure Agreements before reviewing codebases or APIs.
Yes, we translate pixel-perfect Figma designs into custom liquid templates with surgical compliance to design spacings.
// Shopify Plus
Checkout Extensibility is Shopify's modern framework replacing checkout.liquid, allowing custom widgets, banners, and rules built with Checkout UI Extensions.
Yes. We write custom discount, shipping, and payment routing logic in Rust and WebAssembly, compiling directly into Shopify checkout.
Shopify Plus starts at $2,000/month (or 0.25% of monthly revenue for high volumes). We help audit transaction volume to assess ROI.
Yes, we build middleware to sync product listings, customer accounts, and inventories across multiple expansion stores.
// Headless Commerce
Headless e-commerce decouples the shopper-facing interface (front-end) from backend databases. We build headless fronts in React/Next.js/Astro and query Shopify's APIs.
Headless stores compile to static assets, bypassing liquid rendering delays. Mobile loading speed typically drops below 0.6 seconds.
Apps that modify frontend layouts must be integrated via their public APIs. We write custom connectors for reviews, search, and UGC.
We deploy storefronts to edge networks like Shopify Oxygen, Vercel, or Netlify, guaranteeing global uptime and sub-100ms response times.
// Migrations & Data
We run crawler maps of your old site, create 301 redirects for every path, format metadata schemas, and verify index status pre- and post-launch.
We migrate complete historical order records, customer profile indices, addresses, variants, and product databases with zero data loss.
No. We run development and delta sync on subdomains, swapping DNS records instantly once validation tests clear.
Yes, we safely migrate subscription contract tokens to Shopify's Subscriptions API without forcing customers to re-enter cards.
// Support & Retainers
Support plans cover proactive performance reviews, security patches, conversion audits, feature extensions, and emergency debugging.
Yes, our enterprise retainers include around-the-clock monitoring and guaranteed developer paging for checkout failures.
Our support retainers operate on flexible month-to-month cycles. Major development projects are structured as milestone-based deliverables.
To ensure stable resource allocation, retainer hours do not roll over, but we plan monthly tasks ahead to ensure full utilization.
