Shopify Migration
Outgrow Shopify's template constraints. Build a truly custom storefront while keeping Shopify's reliable commerce engine.
Beyond Shopify's Limitations
Shopify excels at getting stores online quickly, but ambitious brands eventually hit walls. Liquid templating restricts design freedom, theme customisation becomes fragile, and checkout limitations frustrate conversion optimisation. Headless Shopify (using the Storefront API) lets you keep Shopify's battle-tested checkout and inventory management while gaining complete frontend freedom.
Why Go Headless with Shopify
Keep Shopify's strengths while removing its limitations
Total Design Freedom
Break free from Liquid templates. Build pixel-perfect designs with React, Vue, or any modern framework.
Superior Performance
Static generation and edge deployment deliver sub-second loads—impossible with traditional Shopify themes.
Developer Workflow
Git-based deployments, proper staging environments, and modern CI/CD instead of Shopify's theme editor.
Native App Parity
Build progressive web apps or native mobile experiences sharing the same commerce backend.
Content Flexibility
Integrate any headless CMS for rich content experiences beyond Shopify's basic blog and pages.
Conversion Optimisation
A/B test anything, implement custom checkout flows, and personalise without app limitations.
Migration Approach
Transition to headless while keeping Shopify as your commerce engine
