6 tips every Shopify developer should know

Looking to hire a Shopify developer? This can be daunting, especially if you are not a developer yourself. Here are our top 6 tips to ask your candidates to see if they really are Shopify Experts as they say…

‍

🧡Using Github & Theme Kit: It’s the only way to ensure the stability of the themes and have as a backup in case something breaks or the client decides to go in and make a change.

🧡Sections: Themes use sections to create your ideal layout. Most sections have blocks that serve a specific function, such as headers, text, single images, a collage of images, or links.

🧡Metafields: They give the power to customize and create variety on pages such as the product area.

🧡Shopify Limitations: While Shopify is a great platform, it has limitations, such as editing the checkout or modifying the backend where you enter product information.

🧡Shopify 2.0: In July 2021, Shopify came out with new features on themes called Shopify 2.0. These include better developer tools such as the meta fields options, easy connection to Github, and manageable sections on all of the theme pages.

🧡Common Shopify Apps: App configuration can be learned, and no developer is expected to know all the apps because there are thousands on the app store.
