An award-winning Shopify agency focused on your needs. Are we a match?
We would love the opportunity to work with you, but we understand that you may have some additional questions. This quick Q&A covers a lot of the basics. If you have any additional questions, don’t hesitate to reach out.
What is Shopify Online Store 2.0 and do I need it?
Online Store 2.0 is Shopify’s modern theme architecture that lets you customize every page of your store using sections and blocks — not just the homepage. If your current theme is pre-2.0, upgrading gives you significantly more flexibility to manage content without developer help. We can assess your current theme and recommend whether an upgrade makes sense for your business.
Can you customize a premium theme or do I need a fully custom theme?
Most stores perform best with a premium theme that’s been customized to match your brand. A fully custom theme makes sense for complex requirements like unique product configurations, B2B functionality, or multi-market stores. We’ll recommend the right approach based on your needs and budget — customization starts at a fraction of the cost of a full build.
What Shopify coding languages do you work with?
We work with Liquid (Shopify’s templating language), HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Shopify’s Section Rendering API. For more advanced functionality, we also build custom Shopify apps using Node.js and Shopify’s APIs. All our code follows Shopify’s theme development best practices for performance and maintainability.
How do you handle theme updates without breaking my customizations?
We use version control (Git) and Shopify’s theme development tools to track every change. When a theme update is released, we review the changelog, test the update against your customizations in a development environment, and only push to your live store once everything is verified. This ensures you get the latest features without losing your custom work.
How long does a theme customization project take?
Minor customizations (color, typography, layout tweaks) typically take 1–2 weeks. Larger projects like custom sections, product page redesigns, or full theme builds range from 4–8 weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline during our scoping call.
