What could you build?

01

Branded storefront

Build a shopping experience shaped around your catalog and brand while connecting to Shopify commerce.

    Choose the first job

    Use the first idea as your brief: Build a shopping experience shaped around your catalog and brand while connecting to Shopify commerce. Name the person responsible and the information they need to act.

  2. 02

    Confirm access before connecting

    Use Storefront API permissions for the storefront. Do not expose Admin API credentials to the browser.

  3. 03

    Shape the app with Scout

    Use the starter prompt below. Ask Scout to propose the records, source field mapping, views, and access rules. Preview sample data before connecting Shopify Headless Stores; keep source IDs so records stay traceable.

  4. 04

    Pilot, then expand

    Test with a small approved dataset and a least-privileged user. Check missing records, revoked access, repeated events, and failed requests. Enable live writes or messages only after the responsible owner approves the workflow.

Start with this prompt

Paste into Scout, then adapt it to your team. Do not paste credentials or private customer data.

Create this app with Shopify Headless Stores: Branded storefront. Build a shopping experience shaped around your catalog and brand while connecting to Shopify commerce. Start with sample data and a small, approved set of records. Before connecting live data: Use Storefront API permissions for the storefront. Do not expose Admin API credentials to the browser. Propose the data model, access rules, and source-to-app field mapping before implementation. Add source links, a last-updated time, and clear empty and connection-error states. Keep credentials out of client code. Require human approval for external messages, source changes, or money movement. Test duplicate events, revoked access, and recovery before publishing.

Make it work your way.
