About the Project
This is a Shopify theme I’m working on to release on Jelly Wave Media.
I started this project because I have a high interest in web development. I decided to try and make a theme for e-commerce stores. When building an alpha version there was a lot of learning to do, practically about Shopify’s liquid. I started out by creating a static home page and then split it up by sections for users to choose. I started off with a course from CodingPhase and then I took that project and put my own spin on it. I plan to add much more content before it’s initial release. My favorite part about the theme are the parallax templates I added to the theme.
What I Gained
I solidified my understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I had priory experience in my college courses but with this project my knowlegde of web developement was reinforced and improved upon. Learning liquid and schemas were a challenge at first but the more I used them and connecting them through the files the easier it got. Through testing the theme I learned more about how users will interact with the theme so I’ve also had to adjust to accommodate a broader audience.
Goals
My goals for this project are to create more templates and a broader set of features. I want to give the users who are going to purchase the theme plenty of options and organized layouts so the users feels they got a great deal.
