What’s your go to Shopify theme when you’re building a custom theme?

I always start with Shopify Horizon as the base, bolt on Tailwind CSS, and build from there. I've built loads of custom theme's this way, its so much easier than buying a premium theme and trying to modify it. It also eliminates bloat and pointless blocks and functionality. One day I'll get around to creating my own base theme but there's never time to even get started on that!

Nice work 👏

Built a conditional variant switch on Shopify in under an hour. A client needed one specific variant (55 Gallon Drum) on their product page to show a "Contact for Pricing" button instead of Add to Cart. The other 4 variants had to keep working exactly as they were. Wrote a scoped Liquid + JavaScript solution that detects the selected variant and swaps the CTA dynamically. No plugins, no theme-breaking changes, no impact on the rest of the store. Client's words: "Extremely well to work with. Fixed the issues without haste. Exceeded my expectations!"
