Shopify is partnering with Vercel to rebuild Hydrogen, its framework for headless storefronts, from the ground up.

  • The new version is open source and runtime agnostic, so developers can build storefronts with Next.js, Nuxt, Svelte, or any framework, instead of being tied to one stack.
  • Storefronts that previously needed custom glue code now come with type-safe API clients and cart state in a single import.
  • Skills let agents extend a storefront with a single command.
  • For retailers such as Paige, feature development has dropped from months to a week.
