npx @rune/ecommerce@rune/ecommerce is an open-source JavaScript module for developers building custom Shopify storefronts outside the Liquid theme system. It provides typed primitives for cart management, product catalog access, inventory checks, and payment handoff, letting engineering teams assemble headless commerce frontends on Next.js or similar frameworks. The buyer is a CTO or lead developer at a DTC brand who has outgrown Shopify themes but does not want to write raw GraphQL against the Admin API.

- Handles cart state, line-item mutations, and checkout redirects
