Common migration items we handle:

  • Products, collections, customers, orders (as feasible)

  • Pages, blogs, navigation, URLs and 301 redirects

  • Checkout and payment/shipping validation

Post-launch verification (tracking, indexing, redirects)

What is Shopify Headless e-Commerce and how do you implement it?

Headless Shopify means Shopify runs the backend (products, checkout, orders), while the storefront is built separately for maximum flexibility and performance.

How Mandasa implements headless:

  • Architecture & tech choice

    • Shopify Hydrogen (common choice) or frameworks like js

  • Storefront build

    • Custom UI components, collections/PDP/cart flows

  • Shopify integration

    • Storefront API (GraphQL), webhooks, custom middleware if needed

  • Checkout strategy

    • Shopify Checkout (standard) + optimized cart/checkout handoff

  • Performance & SEO

    • Core Web Vitals improvements, structured data, routing/redirect strategy

  • Deployment & operations

Hosting setup (e.g., Shopify Oxygen or other providers), CI/CD, monitoring

Who should choose a headless Shopify setup?

Headless Shopify is a strong fit when you need:

  • Enterprise-grade performance and advanced UX
  • Complex front-end experiences (custom builders, interactive UI, personalization)
  • Multiple front ends (web + mobile app + kiosks) using one Shopify backend
  • Content-heavy sites needing CMS-driven experiences (integrated with Shopify)
  • Complex integrations and custom workflows that benefit from a decoupled stack

If your store is straightforward and speed-to-market matters most, a standard Shopify theme may be the better choice.

What can you customize in a Shopify theme?

We can customize almost every customer-facing part of a Shopify theme, including:

  • Homepage sections and layout

  • Header, menus, mega menus, and navigation UX

  • Collection pages (filters, sorting, badges, merchandising)

  • Product pages (media, variant UX, upsells, bundles, subscriptions)

  • Cart and mini-cart experiences

  • Content pages (about, FAQ, landing pages)

  • Localization/multi-currency display (where applicable)

Performance improvements (reduce scripts, optimize Liquid, images, rendering)
Do you work with both free and paid themes?

Yes. We work with:

  • Free Shopify themes (for fast, clean launches)

  • Premium paid themes (when you want specific layout/features)

  • Fully custom themes (when brand and UX requirements demand it)

We’ll recommend the best approach based on your goals, timeline, and complexity.
