Build a Full-Stack Shopify App in 2021

In this Course we cover how to Build a Full-Stack Shopify App with NodeJS, MongoDB, and a whole lot of JavaScript.

The course is based on 2 large github repositories:

Repo #1: Build a Shopify App with Node and React

This is the 8-part Tutorial by Shopify's Documentation Team itself.

That tutorial covers:

1. Introduction

2. Set up your app

3. Embed your app in Shopify

4. Build your user interface with Polaris

5. Learn the GraphQL Admin API

6. Fetch data with Apollo

7. Charge a fee using the Billing API

8. Listen for store events with webhooks

Repo #2: The Live Social King Production App

This is a very large repo with over 900 commits already.

The reason that I'm sharing this with the community is because:

a) It's much funner to code as part of a community

b) When you're employed as a Developer or working as part of a Development Team, your manager usually won't walk you through every single line of Code.

Instead, they'll say: Here's the code. I'm happy to walk you through setting up the codebase on your local machine.

If you have any questions along the way, just feel free to reach out, and I'm happy to help.

Let Shoppers Handle Content

Enable shoppers to create content about your products. Moderate every post, content, image or video shared by your community.

Keep The Community Branded

Your Social Pages Integrate out-of-the-box with your existing Theme and Shopify Apps. Enable Email Notifications to bring shoppers back.

Scale Your Community

Shoppers are used to using Emojis on their Favorite Social Networks. Enable Emojis on your own Social Network, and Scale Your Community.

Shoppers Can:

• Create their own user profile with a picture and about section

• Create and edit posts, including uploading images and embedding videos

• Comment on each other's posts

• React with Emojis

Store Admins Can:

• Manage Tags to drive conversations around specific topics

• Moderate every User-Generated Post & Comment before it goes live on the site

• Promote relevant products alongside user-generated content

• Customize the look and feel of the community pages

Boost Your Community Vibes

Provide your customers with a platform to blog, connect, share, and learn all under the tent of your own brand.

Email Notifications

When any post or comment is approved, the shopper gets an email notification with a link to the approved content - thereby bringing them back to your site (*for free!)

Matches Your Theme & Integrates With Your Existing Apps

When you install Social King, you'll notice that the Community Pages will have the exact same header and footer of your Original Theme - out of the box - and all your existing plugins should also work directly on your Community Pages.
