A hands-on day for builders. Research, code, ship, and submit a real Shopify app — assisted end-to-end by Claude Code. No theory parade. We open the editor and we go.
You'll watch a Shopify app get built from a blank folder to a live submission — using AI as the pair programmer.
This is for people who already write code, ship things, and want to compress weeks of solo work into a single day of guided practice. We'll cover app research — the part most people skip — then write a real Shopify app with Claude Code, test it, document it, and submit it to the App Store while you watch.
A panel of CEOs and operators will share the business side: what sells, what dies on the shelf, and what they wish app developers understood. We close with Q&A on whatever you bring.
Setting the room. What today is, what today isn't, and how to get the most out of it.
The unglamorous half of app development. Picking problems worth solving, finding gaps in the Shopify App Store, validating before you write a line of code.
Live build. We cover prompting strategy, generating code that actually runs, testing the app, and producing documentation alongside the codebase using AI. The whole loop, on screen.
Five speakers from the Shopify ecosystem share their stories: how they grew, how they hire developers, what they pay for, and what makes them close a tab in three seconds.
Generating the submission package with AI: titles, descriptions, featured images, screenshots. Then we hit submit while the room watches. No edits, no second takes.
Topic and speaker announced closer to the date. Something worth your time — we'll tell you what when we know.
Ask anything. Stay as long as you want. We close the doors when the conversation ends.
Applications are now closed. All 400 seats have been allocated. For reference, seats were earned by showing you're an online professional with Shopify experience — LinkedIn was required as a baseline, with marketplace profiles and GitHub repos strengthening applications.
An active, real LinkedIn profile that shows what you do online. This is the minimum we need from everyone applying. We'll check it.
Upwork, Fiverr, Toptal, or any e-commerce-related freelance marketplace profile. Helps a lot, especially with reviews and a Shopify-related work history.
A public repository with e-commerce or Shopify-related work — a theme, an app, an integration, a useful tool. Code speaks. Link your best one.
Every seat for this event has been filled. Thank you to everyone who applied — we received an overwhelming response and are grateful for the interest in this workshop.
We're not handing out t-shirts, stickers, or tote bags. The takeaway is what's in your head and your editor after you leave.
No catering, no tea breaks with biscuits. There are restaurants nearby — grab lunch from one of them during the one-hour break.
You'll get more out of the build session if you can code along. Power outlets are limited — come charged.
This event has no sponsors and we're not looking for any. We want to stay focused on the workshop itself — no brand booths, no logo walls, no agenda from outside. We're personally funding every cost of this event ourselves.
