Custom Apps

Shopify App Development

When an off-the-shelf app cannot support your workflow, we build a Shopify app around the actual requirement. We first compare configuration, an existing app, and custom development, then define the smallest maintainable solution. Projects can include merchant-facing tools, storefront extensions, and background workflows.

Who This Is For

Merchants whose workflows need functionality beyond an existing app.

What's Included

  • Workflow discovery and existing-app assessment
  • App architecture, permissions, and data model
  • Merchant interfaces and storefront extensions where appropriate
  • API and webhook handling with retries and duplicate-event protection
  • Access controls and handling of customer data appropriate to the scope
  • Deployment documentation, monitoring, and maintenance handover

Our Process

01

Define the workflow

We map who uses the app, what triggers an action, the data involved, and the acceptance criteria.

02

Validate the approach

We confirm platform capabilities, access requirements, distribution options, and any plan-dependent constraints before implementation.

03

Build and test

We implement the agreed workflow and test permissions, failure paths, and the merchant experience.

04

Release and maintain

We document deployment and ownership. Public app submissions, if included in scope, remain subject to Shopify review.

Outcomes

  • An app scoped to a specific business workflow
  • Documented permissions and data handling
  • Tested recovery from expected integration failures
  • A clear release and maintenance plan
