Shopify guides, no sales pitch.
We've been building Shopify stores since 2010. These are the things we wish someone had written down earlier — costs, architecture, integrations, and the platform decisions that actually move revenue.
The subscription is $39/month. Apps, transaction fees, themes, and development? That's a different story. A full breakdown of every cost category — what drives it up and how to keep it in check.
02 Headless Shopify & HydrogenWhen going headless makes sense — and when it doesn't. A comparison of Hydrogen, Next.js, and enhanced Liquid with honest criteria for deciding which fits your store and revenue stage.
03 Shopify Plus — is it worth it?Every feature Plus unlocks, the fee savings math at $2M–$10M GMV, and how it compares to Magento and Salesforce Commerce Cloud. The upgrade calculus, honestly done.
04 Shopify integrations that holdERP, QuickBooks, Xero, 3PL, CRM — why off-the-shelf connectors fail under real data, and how to build integrations with idempotent webhooks and proper reconciliation that run without babysitting.
Whether you're migrating off BigCommerce, scaling on Plus, or rebuilding headless from scratch — we'll match you with a senior engineer who's done it before. No account managers, no handoffs.
