How to add extra customer data to Shopify orders
You might need to collect extra information from your customers, such as a birthday, pet names, or an eyeglass prescription. The best way to collect this kind of data is through customer metafields. Metafield values cannot be created or edited directly through the frontend of a Shopify theme, so if you wish for customers to modify metafield data via the storefront you’ll need to use an app, like Customer Fields.

Implementing Server-Driven UI Architecture on the Shop App
Located within the Shop organization at Shopify, the Shop Store team is responsible for managing the buyer experience on the Shop App’s Store Screen—the screen where buyers can view a merchant’s products and collections. We recently implemented an architecture called server-driven UI that allows us to control which store sections we want to display for a merchant’s store.

Console log output right next to your code
One of the fastest ways to understand what your code is doing is console.log. Unfortunately, it doesn't scale - multiple log statements quickly result in obscure unmanageable output. Console Ninja is specifically designed to keep console.log easy to use while making it scalable, providing an edit & continue REPL-like debug experience.

Plus merchants can now start building with Shopify Functions
Starting today, Shopify Functions are available to Shopify Plus brands who are not leveraging a checkout.liquid customization. This means that Plus merchants can start building their own product or order discount Functions and deploy them with a custom app. Please note that the rollout to eligible Plus shops will take a couple of weeks to complete. Plus brands that leverage a checkout.liquid customization are not eligible to use Functions at this point in time.
