Hi. I'm the engineer Kawashima.

Hello Shopify Themes Shopify theme development guide" PDF e-book version will begin pre-delivering this afternoon, March 31st.
As a writer, I feel like I want to wander around in the room without writing.

Now, as you can see in this article This book consists of six chapters in total.
After that, we have set up a part called “5-2.Recommended App List” in Chapter 5.
Our non-sta members (*not just me!) put together a list of apps that feel like “this is good” when dealing with Shopify deals.

However, as changes in the app’s periphery have been intensely affected by updates and new releases, we decided to publish our entire list on this blog post with some introductions.
i hope you can help me:)

※Ship&co and other shipping services applications are excluded from the list because their requirements vary depending on the presence or absence of an order management system.

An App to Extend Theme Development

Delivery date and time designation. Added delivery date and time designation form to the amp|cart screen

This app supports Japanese language and is stable in operation among several delivery date and time designated apps.
You can display a date and time selection column on the cart screen, which allows you to set regular holidays or long-term vacations from the management screen as well as by default for Japanese shipping companies.

Back In Stock _ Restocking Notification Button

It is an application that can collect the e-mail address of customers who wish to re-stock and automatically deliver guidance mail when re-stocking.
When the product is sold out, a button will be displayed on the relevant product page to allow customers to register their email addresses that they wish to receive.
It’s also convenient to customize the button UI freely, and it will allow you to add restocking notifications in other languages (a new feature from January 2022).

Custom Fields : Metafield Management

It is an application for registering and managing various meta fields.
The Shopify metafields currently available as standard from the management screen are five products, product variations, collections, customers and orders. With the addition of collections, customers, and order metafields in January 2022, they're quite usable, but if you want to make it easy for people to manipulate metafields like blog posts or fixed pages, use these apps. There are several Metafield-related applications, but Custom Fields also allows you to generate widgets such as tabs and accordions at once.

Product Filter & Search

It is an application that realizes high function search and narrowing down.
Some narrowing-down apps will cause duplicate content, but Product Filter & Search is properly addressed and it’s safe for SEO, you can set up an ambiguous search.

Infinite Options

This app allows you to add unlimited options for products.
In addition, you can set images and color information for each option to be displayed as an easy-to-operate option selection UI.
It’s also convenient to add existing items (for example, a paid gift box) as an option.
By setting a detailed condition determination from the management screen, you can switch option display and operate it only on products that match specific conditions.

Simple Bundles & Kits

It is an application that can create a set sale product by combining multiple products.
When a set product is purchased, the number of stocks for each item in the set will be updated in conjunction with it; however, if you want to manage inventory by order management system (such as logistic), this setting can be done on the system side.

Bundle Builder: Creating a more flexible set of sales products

This is also an application that allows you to create set sales products, but it can be more flexible setting.
Create a screen that allows customers to select more than the specified number of products (such as discounts for purchases with three or more points) and an option selection screen such as wrapping.

Matrixify|Import and Export of Shopify Data

It is an application that exports and imports various data such as products and customers on Shopify with Excel or CSV files.
There are a wide variety of items that can be handled and operate faster than Shopify's standard CSV export function, so it is useful when migrating/replicating stores or batch updating data.

Order Printer Pro: PDF Invoice

This is an app for creating high-design invoices and receipts.
Order Printer Pro is an extension of the free receipt creation app that Shopify offers.
By purchasing templates (paid and purchased), you can easily create a receipt that is easier to see, better designed.
With Liquid’s skills, more complex customization is also possible.

Locksmith|Access Control

It is an app that can control access to pages on the store.
By determining the conditions for each customer segment, you can make various use of it depending on your ideas such as limited publication and price change of specific products or fixed pages.
Liquid alone is also possible only for simple login decisions, but it’s recommended if you want to add more complex conditions.

Klaviyo: Email Marketing & SMS | Advanced Mail Marketing

It is an application that realizes personalized mail delivery.
Compared to the official Shopify Mail app, you can set up more advanced segmentations and send customers emails based on purchase/view history.
Recommended when performing detailed email marketing.

Segments Analytics _ Customer segment analysis

This app analyzes the customer segment in detail and supports more effective measures.
Created by a former LinkedIn data scientist, it automatically classifies customers into more than 30 segments based on their purchasing and browsing behavior, allowing them to propose and implement the best approach for each segment.

This article is scheduled to be added and updated at any time in the future. I would appreciate it if you could come visit me sometimes :)
