Shopify development in Dundee

What separates a working Dundee store from a competent-looking one is usually a single unglamorous requirement: games studios selling directly alongside platform storefronts. It rarely appears in a brief and it reliably appears in the first month of trading, which is the expensive place to discover it.

Games studios selling directly alongside platform storefronts

Choosing Shopify is mostly a decision about where the effort goes.

The infrastructure is solved, which means the build can be spent on the catalogue, the checkout logic and the specific requirement above rather than on making a server behave. Most of the Dundee work we are asked about comes from studios selling physical merchandise beside digital goods, frequently based around Technology Park. What those businesses have in common is that the requirement above is not optional for them, whatever else changes about the build. Where we push back is on anything the operation cannot support. It is straightforward to build a store that offers more than the business can deliver, and the cost of that arrives later as returns, complaints and a reputation nobody chose. The build is ordinary once the specifics are decided. What distinguishes it is that games studios selling directly alongside platform storefronts was treated as a requirement rather than discovered afterwards, which is the difference between a store that fits the business in Dundee and one the business has to work around every day.

We have no office in Dundee. Our studio is in Rajkot, India, and every project here is delivered remotely — if a supplier who can attend your premises matters to you, that is a fair requirement and we do not meet it.

What a Shopify development project includes

Three things, and they are the same wherever you are. What changes is the subject above.

  • Custom Online Store 2.0 theme or headless storefront

  • App, payment and fulfilment integration

  • Migration with a full URL redirect map

The other three, and what each one covers

Each answers a different question for Dundee businesses. None of them repeats this page.

Shopify development questions from Dundee

Three questions about the subject above. How we work, what it costs and who owns the code are answered on the service page.

How long does a Dundee build take?

It depends far more on the catalogue and the integrations than on where you are. A straightforward store with clean product data is weeks; one carrying the requirement described above, or a migration with history to preserve, is longer. We would rather scope it honestly than quote a number that fits a Dundee brochure.

Do we need to be in Dundee to work with you?

No, and none of our clients has needed us in the room. Work happens over shared documents, a staging site and scheduled calls, which is how a distributed team operates in any case. If a supplier who can attend your premises in Dundee matters to you, that is a fair requirement we do not meet.

What if we already have a Shopify store?

Then the useful first step is looking at what is there rather than proposing a rebuild. A great many Dundee stores need a specific problem solved rather than a new theme, and we would rather say that than sell a project. Where a rebuild genuinely is the answer, the reasons should be concrete.
