What does a Shopify developer need to do?

As a Shopify developer, you can provide many services to companies who seek your work. The key responsibility of a shopify developer is to set up an online Shopify store for a company. Their work also involves developing custom Shopify themes and generating new templates for the online store. They also collaborate with UX and UI design teams to generate a vibrant online store.

Following is a list of services you, as a freelancer, can offer to a potential client:

Shopify theme development: For any brand, having a visual aesthetic is essential. A Shopify developer can provide a unique theme to each online store they develop through this service. There are many different Shopify themes and customizations available on the platform.
Shopify store set-up: To set up an online store, a significant amount of coding and other technicalities are required, which can be provided by the Shopify developers. They can develop pages like the landing page, modify existing pages, customise or build the store from scratch.
Shopify app development: Shopify app development is highly specialised work that may require much more work than generating an online store. The company may ask the Shopify developer to build a new private app.
Shopify migration- Shopify developers also have to sometimes migrate the online store from one platform to another since many companies may already have existing businesses there.
Shopify store updating and maintenance- Shopify developers also need to add the new features that keep on coming so that the online stores are up-to-date with recent trends.
