How we ship

Git-based delivery. Safe deploys. Full visibility.

We treat your store like real software. Every change is version-controlled, reviewed, tested on a staging theme, and shipped through a pipeline — never typed straight into your live theme. And you watch it happen in the tools you already use.

CI/CD pipeline

From commit to live — the safe path.

Every task travels the same route. Nothing reaches your storefront without passing review and automated checks first.

Environments & version control

Branches map to real Shopify themes.

Work is separated by environment so experiments never touch what your customers see — and every release is a git commit you can revert in seconds.

Environment strategy

Each branch is connected to a theme via the Shopify GitHub integration.

feature/*→Preview themeThrowaway, one per pull request
staging→Staging themeClient review & QA before release
main→Live themeProduction — deploys only after approval

Every change is traceable

A feature branches off, gets reviewed, and merges back — with a clean history and instant rollback.

mainfeature/pdp-upsellmerge

git revert turns any bad release into a one-line, instant rollback — no scrambling in the theme editor.

Quality gates

Nothing merges until the checks are green.

Automated checks run on every pull request, so quality isn't a promise — it's enforced by the pipeline.

What the gates catch

  • Theme Check — Shopify's official linter flags Liquid errors and anti-patterns before they ship.
  • Performance budget — A PR that slows the store down fails the build automatically.
  • Accessibility — Automated WCAG checks so your store stays usable for everyone.
  • Preview link — Every change gets its own URL you can click and approve, on real data.
Tools & collaboration

You stay in the loop — in the tools you already use.

We plug into your stack (or set one up). Everything is transparent: the code, the plan, and the conversation.
