Shopify, WooCommerce, headless

A store shaped to how you actually sell.

Custom Shopify apps, WooCommerce development, and headless storefronts for the rare stores that earn one. Fewer plugins, faster pages, one source of truth.

Tell me what you are building

It is right when.

  • Your app stack costs more every month and slows every page
  • Inventory, orders or customers drift out of sync between systems
  • Your store needs a workflow no app quite covers
  • You are migrating platforms and cannot afford to lose search traffic
And when it is not

Most stores do not need headless, and I will talk you out of it when it is overkill. The best build is often one purpose-built piece that replaces a stack of workarounds.

“Twenty fine plugins become one slow, fragile system.”

How it works.

  1. DiscoveryWe map the problem and the one outcome that matters most.
  2. Fixed-scope first phaseOne outcome, one price, agreed up front.
  3. Demos at every stepYou see working software, not status reports.
  4. You own everythingYour repository, your keys, your data.
  5. Decide at each milestoneContinue, pause or stop, and keep what you paid for.

Read before you decide.

Questions.

Shopify or WooCommerce?

It depends on how you sell, what you need to own, and where you are going. The platform scorecard in the guide walks through it; the short version is to choose once, for the business you are becoming.

Do you build headless storefronts?

Yes, when speed and presentation are the brand. For most stores a well-built standard theme is faster to ship and cheaper to run, and I will say so.

Can you migrate us without losing SEO?

Yes. Redirect mapping, metadata and structured data carry over, and the migration is verified before and after launch.
