It seems that maybe web component advocates are right. Eventually they’ll eat everything, even if slowly.

Shopify for the longest time had a “hardline” with only supporting React directly, if I recall correctly

What a terrible UX on that site. This site barely works on my mobile. When I think storefront I think simple & fast, this site is not at all that. Stores are "hidden" by design, it is about the products and store itself just provides them.

Shopify currently has a scandal in Germany because they blocked payouts for a TV-famous startup which "ships too slowly". The startup locally produces clothing from sheep wool and only starts production once the order is in. Shopify is unable to understand the concept of make-to-order-production, it's a bit ridiculous to see what their support people are writing. More on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovRpT…

I could not understand what this was from the linked site. Docs if anyone is curious - https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront-web-components . I really appreciate that they built this. The `shopify-context` is especially useful. Makes rendering all of the various resources infinitely easier.

Thanks! We've changed the link to that from https://webcomponents.shopify.dev/playground.
