Congrats, it looks great. I'll definitely be recommending this to a few store owners I know.
About Shopify, we've been doing integrations for every ecommerce platform for our pricing engine and Shopify's integration was an order of magnitude easier to work with.
Long live webhooks.
- sgrove 14y agoDefinitely agreed about the Shopify API and general sentiment around webhooks. Any integration without webhooks ends up using 3x more engineering effort to hack around it. And thanks for the kind words!
- xal 14y agoReally appreciate it guys. The API is going to become like 5x better in the next half year too.
- dangrossman 14y agoShopify's definitely doing integration right. The API docs are a little rough, but they've done the important parts. I've spent the past few weeks helping new Improvely users integrate our tracking platform with all their different shopping carts. With most of them, we had to walk people through editing templates/themes or other kludges. With Shopify, we just wrote an "app" to register scripts with the theme, some webhooks and a few API calls, and the end-user just needs to click an install button. Best of all, all those hooks/scripts get unregistered automatically when the app is uninstalled. Even other platforms that have a plugin/app system like this tend to get that part wrong.
