shopify-apps

Plugin

This Claude Code plugin assists developers writing Shopify apps by loading Shopify-specific context, API patterns, and Polaris conventions into the AI coding session. It suits engineering teams and technical founders building private or public Shopify apps who want their AI assistant to produce code aligned with Shopify's SDKs, App Bridge, and Admin API rather than generic Node or React boilerplate. Distribution is through a public GitHub repository, not the Shopify App Store.
