• Testing Excellence: You have strong experience with testing frameworks like Jest, Cypress, or similar.

Our frontend tech stack currently features a blend of Liquid templating, TypeScript, Vue, and React, styled with Tailwind CSS and built with StorybookJS, all interacting with an ApolloJS GraphQL API.

We also incorporate Shopify App development, with Laravel serving as the backbone.
