# Shopify Setup Notes

## Recommended approach

Use this static site as the premium marketing front end first. Shopify can later be connected using:

1. Shopify theme rebuild
2. Shopify Storefront API
3. Shopify Buy Button
4. Headless storefront deployment

## Required Shopify Admin setup

- Products
- Collections
- Product options
- Checkout
- Payments
- Taxes
- Shipping zones
- Legal pages
- Contact/customer notification emails
- Inventory policy
- Return/refund policy

## Current buying flow

Consultation-first. This is appropriate for high-ticket atelier garments where fit, delivery timeline, and customization matter before payment.
