The Opportunity
A Shopify app that helps merchants recreate Figma designs with precise positioning, custom CSS controls, and responsive layout tooling without needing a full custom theme rebuild. It bridges the gap between theme editing and fully bespoke storefront design.
"A merchant wants to convert a Figma design into a pixel-perfect Shopify storefront but finds theme editing too limiting for advanced CSS and positioning."
