Built for Shopify Configured to Build World-class Commerce Apps

August 29, 2022 | | Updated: March 10, 2023

Shopify’s new program, Built for Shopify, explicitly created for Shopify app developers, includes all tools and documentation needed to develop an app that looks, feels, and performs within Shopify standards. It includes guidelines on app structure, layout, visual design, content, and navigation and is a blueprint set by Shopify to create and scale websites. It is a collection of stringent standards for app quality, design, and performance stipulated by the platform to maintain its goodwill in commerce. These standards apply to users building a new app and the ones scaling existing apps. Through these benchmarks, Shopify gives its developers the documentation, technology, and promotional opportunities to perfect their trade. Apps that meet Built for Shopify standards will feature on Shopify Admin and Shopify App Store.
