Added 3 new theme blocks tonight to Section Star: hotspots, buy buttons and external videos.

The Card Grid is quickly becoming one of the most popular sections on Section Star and I am constantly improving it based on feedback. This week I added 6 new ways to customize it.

Looks like managed install has not impacted performance metrics. Didn’t think it would but wanted to test anyways. Next up, Polaris web components.

Switched Section Star🌟 to managed install tonight. Super nervous to pull the trigger but everything looks nominal. Allows me to remove a ton of deprecated stuff. I don't think this will affect any perf metrics but interested to see how that plays out.

Has anyone used declarative custom data (MOs in TOML)? Can you retrofit an existing app metaobject with the new declarative custom data?

This may seem like a dumb question, but I promise you it is real. If I am using Shopify's managed installation and have the TOML setup. Do I just need to do a token exchange and have a CSP and I am good? Am I missing anything? Seems too easy.

The new Shopify app growth hack. Provide a delightful experience in your app then pop the review modal. Simple. No annoying chat popups. No hidden review incentives. This is the way.

🔥 take: Shopify has fixed the App Store review issues. The new review modal and review safe guards are fantastic.

I am not a UX guys (well maybe a little) but I can tell you 💯 that a lot of shop owners completely miss this teeny tiny blue plus sign. I send this graphic out at least 1x a week. Once you know, you know. But if ya don't, ya don't.

I don't remember how I even use to build example stores before AI. They were super boring.

Shopify dev is a roller coaster. Started the day with a 5⭐ review. Late night got hit up on an "urgent" issue with a site. Reply back almost immediately and then I hear absolutely nothing. Most likely going to bookend the day with a bad review. 🤷

Just built a fun little section to enable lazy playing videos via scroll position. I love building these little utilities. Small effort but shop owners love them.

Anyone using Shopify customer accounts as a way to surface app data? I am wondering if it would be a good way to surface fundraiser performance for Fundlet.

This weekend the focus was on building a really clean onboarding form for Fundlet. Really slick way to onboard fundraisers onto Shopify.

Am I doing Shopify Flow wrong? You can't edit liquid in the flow and if you edit it in the .flow file it doesn't import. So I am constantly copying and pasting and reimporting. Is there a better workflow?
