I will build a custom headless shopify storefront using nextjs


About this gig
Are you losing revenue because your Shopify store is too slow?
Standard Shopify themes are bloated, slow, and restrictive. A Headless Shopify architecture using Next.js solves this by decoupling your frontend from the backend, resulting in blazing-fast load times, complete design freedom, and significantly higher checkout conversion rates.

FAQ
What is Headless Shopify and why do I need it?
Headless Shopify decouples the frontend UI from the Shopify backend. It allows us to build a blazing-fast, completely custom Next.js storefront while still using Shopify to securely process payments and inventory. You need it if standard themes are too slow or restrictive for your brand
Will I still be able to manage my products in the Shopify Admin?
Yes! You will still use your normal Shopify dashboard to add products, manage inventory, and process orders. The custom Next.js storefront simply pulls that data automatically via the Storefront API. Nothing changes for your operations team.
How much faster will a Headless store be?
Standard Shopify themes often suffer from app bloat, causing 3-5 second load times. A properly built Next.js Headless store can load pages in milliseconds, resulting in a massive boost to SEO rankings and checkout conversion rates.
Do you provide the UI design, or do I need to provide Figma files?
If you already have a Figma design, I will bring it to life pixel-perfectly! If you do not have a design yet, don't worry—we can collaborate using premium UI components to build a beautiful, modern storefront together.
Will my existing Shopify Apps still work on a Headless storefront?
Many backend Shopify apps (like shipping, taxes, and inventory) will work perfectly without any changes. However, apps that inject visual elements into your theme (like review widgets or popups) will need to be custom integrated via APIs.
