Development Team

Why Tech Geum

A development team, not a theme installer

Most Shopify work in Kerala stops at the theme editor. Ours goes into Liquid, GraphQL, webhooks, and the systems your store has to talk to — because that is usually where the real requirement lives.

terminal

Real Engineering Practice

Version-controlled theme code, a staging or development store, and reviewed changes — not edits typed straight into your live storefront.

api

Integration Engineers

We already build ERP, CRM, accounting, and payment integrations daily, so connecting Shopify to your back office is routine work rather than a research project.

layers

Full-Stack Depth

The same team builds custom web apps and portals, so a Shopify requirement that spills outside the platform does not need a second vendor.

Documented Handover

Theme repo, app inventory, integration map, and environment notes — so the next developer, ours or yours, is not reverse-engineering the build.

What Goes Wrong

How badly built Shopify stores actually fail

These are the problems we are called in to fix most often — every one of them is a development decision made cheaply and paid for later.

Most Expensive Mistake

Hard-coding content and pricing into theme files. Every future change needs a developer, and the merchant loses the ability to run their own store.

01

Edits made directly on the live theme

No staging store, no version control, no way to roll back. One bad save during a campaign takes the storefront down, and the previous working state is gone.

02

Content hard-coded instead of made editable

Banners, USPs, and offers baked into Liquid rather than exposed as sections and blocks. The merchant cannot change a single line without paying for developer time.

03

An app installed for every requirement

Ten apps, ten script injections, ten monthly bills — where two of the features could have been thirty lines of Liquid or a single Shopify Function.

04

Product pages that fail Core Web Vitals

Uncompressed hero images, render-blocking third-party scripts, and layout that jumps as it loads. Mobile buyers on patchy data leave before the add-to-cart button appears.

05

Migrations done without redirect mapping

The new store launches, old URLs 404, and months of accumulated organic rankings evaporate in a fortnight with no plan to recover them.

06

Integrations built as one-way scripts

A nightly export that silently fails with no logging, no retries, and no alerts — so nobody notices stock and orders have drifted until a customer complains.

Theme Development

Online Store 2.0 themes your marketing team can actually edit

We build in Liquid the way Shopify intends — everything configurable through the theme editor, so your team ships campaigns without raising a ticket.

  • check_circle

    Custom sections and blocks with sensible schema, available on every template

  • check_circle

    JSON templates for home, collection, product, and landing pages

  • check_circle

    Metafields and metaobjects for structured content like ingredients, certifications, or size guides

  • check_circle

    Variant, bundle, and made-to-order logic that survives real catalogue complexity

  • check_circle

    Responsive builds tested on the low-end Android phones most Kerala buyers use

  • check_circle

    Accessible markup, semantic headings, and product schema built in from the start

Custom Apps & Integrations

When no app on the store does what you need

We build custom and private Shopify apps against the platform APIs, and connect your store to the systems that run the rest of the business.

  • check_circle

    Admin GraphQL API work for products, inventory, orders, and fulfilment automation

  • check_circle

    Storefront API usage for custom buying experiences and quote flows

  • check_circle

    Theme app extensions and checkout UI extensions instead of unsupported script hacks

  • check_circle

    Shopify Functions for custom discount, delivery, and payment customisation logic

  • check_circle

    Webhook-driven syncs with retries, logging, and failure alerts — not silent nightly scripts

  • check_circle

    Connectors to Zoho Books, Zoho Inventory, Razorpay, courier APIs, and existing ERP systems

Migration & Replatforming

Move to Shopify without losing your search rankings

Migrations go wrong in predictable ways. We plan for each of them before a single product is imported.

  • check_circle

    Full data migration — products, variants, images, customers, and order history

  • check_circle

    URL-by-URL 301 redirect mapping from your old store, verified after launch

  • check_circle

    Metadata, canonical tags, and structured data carried across, not regenerated blindly

  • check_circle

    Organic traffic and ranking benchmarks recorded before cutover so regressions are visible

  • check_circle

    Sources we migrate from: WooCommerce, Magento, OpenCart, Wix, and custom PHP carts

  • check_circle

    A rehearsed cutover window, so the switch happens outside your peak selling hours

Speed & Core Web Vitals

A fast store on a mid-range phone and a weak signal

Speed is a revenue metric, not a vanity score. We fix what actually delays the first meaningful pixel and the add-to-cart tap.

  • check_circle

    LCP work: hero image sizing, responsive srcsets, preloading, and modern formats

  • check_circle

    CLS work: reserved image and banner space so the layout stops jumping mid-load

  • check_circle

    Third-party script audit — deferred, conditionally loaded, or removed with the app

  • check_circle

    Liquid cleanup: reducing heavy loops and redundant queries in the request cycle

  • check_circle

    Font loading strategy that stops invisible text on first paint

  • check_circle

    Before-and-after field data from real users, not just a lab score screenshot

How We Build

Our Shopify development process

Five stages, with something reviewable at the end of each one — so you are never waiting weeks to see progress.

1Step 1

Scoping & Audit

We map your catalogue, integrations, and edge cases, and audit the existing store if there is one. You get a written scope with timelines before any code.

2Step 2

Architecture & Design

Theme structure, section inventory, data model, and integration plan agreed. Designs prepared or your Figma files reviewed against Shopify constraints.

3Step 3

Build on a Dev Store

Development happens in a partner development or staging store with version-controlled theme code. Your live storefront is never the workbench.

4Step 4

QA & UAT

Cross-device testing, checkout runs on every payment method, integration failure cases, and a Core Web Vitals pass before you sign off.

5Step 5

Launch & Handover

A rehearsed cutover outside peak hours, redirects verified, then documentation, repo access, and a training session for your team.

What You Get

Exactly what is handed over at the end of a build

No vague “store delivered” line item. This is the checklist we close every Shopify development project against.

folder_code

Theme code in your repository

The full theme source under your Git account, with commit history and branch notes — not a zip file emailed at handover.

inventory_2

App and subscription inventory

Every installed app, what it does, what it costs monthly, and what would break if you removed it.

account_tree

Integration map

A written diagram of every data flow — Shopify to payments, accounting, inventory, and courier systems, with credentials under your accounts.

school

Team training session

A recorded walkthrough of the theme editor, sections, product setup, and order workflow for the people who run the store daily.

fact_check

QA and launch report

Test coverage across devices and payment methods, Core Web Vitals scores, and verified redirect mapping where a migration was involved.

support_agent

Warranty window

A defined post-launch period where anything we built that misbehaves is fixed at no extra cost.

FAQs

Shopify development questions we get asked

help

What kind of Shopify development work do you take on?

expand_more
Online Store 2.0 theme development in Liquid, custom Shopify app development against the Admin and Storefront GraphQL APIs, headless storefronts on Hydrogen and Oxygen, migrations from WooCommerce or Magento, third-party API integrations, and page-speed engineering. We work on new builds and on existing stores that need repair.
help

Do you build custom themes, or customise existing Shopify themes?

expand_more
Both, and we will tell you which one your budget is better spent on. Starting from Dawn or a well-built premium theme and customising it heavily is usually faster and cheaper to maintain. A fully custom theme makes sense when your merchandising or product configuration genuinely has no off-the-shelf equivalent.
help

How long does a Shopify store development project take?

expand_more
A focused build on a customised Online Store 2.0 theme typically runs 3 to 5 weeks. A custom theme with bespoke sections and integrations runs 6 to 10 weeks. A headless Hydrogen storefront or a custom app is scoped separately because timelines depend on API surface and data complexity.
help

Can you develop a custom Shopify app for our specific requirement?

expand_more
Yes. We build private and custom apps using the Admin GraphQL API, Storefront API, webhooks, theme app extensions, checkout UI extensions, and Shopify Functions for discount or delivery logic. Typical requests are custom pricing rules, ERP sync, loyalty logic, and internal operations dashboards.
help

Can you migrate our existing WooCommerce or Magento store to Shopify?

expand_more
Yes. We migrate products, variants, customers, and order history, rebuild the storefront, and — critically — map every old URL to its new one with 301 redirects so you do not lose rankings. We benchmark organic traffic before and after so any drop is visible and fixable, not a mystery.
help

Will a migration hurt our SEO?

expand_more
Not if the redirect mapping and on-page structure are handled properly. Rankings drop during migrations when URLs change without redirects, metadata is regenerated from scratch, or structured data is lost. We treat all three as build requirements rather than post-launch cleanup, and our SEO team signs off before launch.
help

Should we go headless with Hydrogen, or stay on a Liquid theme?

expand_more
Most Kerala brands should stay on Liquid. Headless is worth the extra build and maintenance cost when you need a highly custom front end, multiple storefronts on shared data, or content from an external CMS. If your requirement is mainly a fast, well-merchandised store, a well-built Online Store 2.0 theme wins on cost and speed.
help

Our Shopify store is slow. Can you fix Core Web Vitals?

expand_more
Yes, and it is one of our most requested engagements. We audit render-blocking scripts, oversized hero images, unused app injections, font loading, and Liquid loops that hit the request cycle hard, then fix the biggest LCP and CLS contributors first. You get before-and-after field data, not just a lab score.
help

Can you hire out a dedicated Shopify developer for our team?

expand_more
Yes. You can reserve developer capacity monthly and treat them as part of your team, running your own sprint priorities. This suits brands with a continuous backlog, and it works the same way as our people augmentation engagements.
help

Do you handle design as well, or do we need to supply designs?

expand_more
We can work either way. Our team can design the storefront from your brand assets, or build pixel-accurate from Figma files your designer supplies. If you bring designs, we flag anything that will fight Shopify's checkout constraints before development starts rather than after.
help

Who owns the code you write for our store?

expand_more
You do. Theme code is delivered in your repository, custom apps are handed over with source and deployment documentation, and any API credentials are created under your accounts. Nothing is hosted on our infrastructure in a way that holds your store hostage.
help

Can you integrate Shopify with Razorpay, Zoho, or an existing ERP?

expand_more
Yes. We configure Razorpay alongside Shopify Payments, push orders and refunds into Zoho Books as GST-ready invoices, sync stock with Zoho Inventory, and build API connectors to existing ERP or warehouse systems where a ready-made app does not exist.
help

What happens if something breaks after the build is handed over?

expand_more
Every project includes a warranty window where defects in what we built are fixed at no cost. Beyond that, most merchants move onto a support arrangement so there is a known route for fixes and new work instead of scrambling for a developer mid-campaign.
help

Do you work with clients outside Kerala?

expand_more
Yes. Our development team is based in Kerala and delivers remotely for clients across India and the Gulf. Being local to Kerala simply means merchants here get on-site sessions and same-timezone responses when a build needs them.
