Pioneering Shopify since 2016
Since our inception in 2016, Ask Phill has been among the first movers in the Shopify space, establishing ourselves as a leader in the industry. Our innovative spirit led us to launch the first Shopify Hydrogen platform in EMEA, setting a new standard for headless development. As Europe's premier Shopify Plus partner, we continue to lead the charge in both headless and native Shopify solutions, pushing the boundaries of ecommerce excellence.
Ask Phill Shopify Starter
The Ask Phill Shopify Starter is like a solid foundation for building Shopify themes, equipped with all the essential tools for creating online stores that are not just visually appealing but also exceptionally fast and optimized for the best user experience. Our engineers have tirelessly improved this toolkit, proudly introducing its latest iteration: Shopify Starter 3.0.
What is the Shopify Starter?
The Shopify Starter is the backbone of every custom project we undertake. In development terms, it’s often referred to as a boilerplate—essentially an empty website framework designed to be built upon. It’s not just a starter; it’s a solution that accelerates the initial setup, allowing developers to focus on more complex customizations. It’s an opinionated approach to Shopify development, encapsulating years of accumulated knowledge and best practices from previous projects. Our starter fits any business, no matter its size or industry.
Key features and innovations in our Shopify Starter 3.0 :
- Optimized for speed: Site speed is a primary focus, ensuring your online store delivers a top-notch user experience.
- Quick time to market: The low-code foundation speeds up the development process, allowing for quicker launches and more time to focus on custom features.
- Browser native technologies: By leveraging native browser features, our starter ensures greater stability and fewer bugs.
- Accessibility and performance: Best practices for accessibility are embedded in the core, resulting in leaner and faster websites.
- High quality standards: By using a standardized starter, we ensure that every project meets our high quality benchmarks, reducing dependency on individual developers.
Why Ask Phill’s Shopify Starter makes a difference?
Our Shopify Starter showcases our commitment to excellence. It streamlines development, allowing us to deliver high-quality, customized ecommerce platforms quickly. Instead of relying on third-party packages to solve problems, we use the browser’s native features such as native lazy loading, prefetching, and web components. This keeps our development setup lean and easily maintainable, preventing technical debt in the future. The user may not notice any difference, but we ensure the project remains easy to maintain, update, and stable for the future.
Clients benefit from our extensive expertise, resulting in high-performing, scalable stores that enhance user experience. With continuous innovation and a focus on performance, we ensure your online store is ready for both current demands and future growth.
