Today we released Storefront PowerPack. This is an extension that allows you to change the StoreFront theme of WooCommerce. Appearance-no need to touch any line of code. PowerPack allows anyone to customize their store without getting involved in HTML or CSS, and can immediately see these custom results.
The power group is in action. Edit any elements in Storefront and check the results immediately.
When we are going to release this extension, we realize that we have never written too much about the idea behind the development of Storefront, and why we choose to decompose the function into extension instead of packing it to the theme of the theme The reason in itself. \”Why not let PowerPack a part of Storefront?\” We thought you might ask.
Today, we will take a few minutes to explain the \”building block\” behind Storefrontt The concept, how it affects the development of extended programs such as PowerPack
. Want to know more? continue reading.
The solid foundation of Storefront
First of all, we did not build Storefront as a simple sandbox theme.
Anyone can use Storefront directly, use sub -themes, or now customize through PowerPack, and has a beautiful store
.
The store is a solid foundation for any purpose, whether it is your store theme or the beginning of custom design. It is used in the box and is full of functions, but it can quickly update to meet your specific needs.
The core concept of woocommerce: Add the content you need
The Storefront we constructing is both streamlined and fast, but also very flexible.
This is also in line with the concept behind Woocommerce
.
The concepts behind all our products are the same: providing things with rich function and powerful function, anyone can build anything they want on them, but do not let it swell. That’s why you find that neither Woocommerce and Storefront have no page builders, design, sliders, and other advanced custom tools or editors.
If you want to use a page to build a slider or add a slider, you can: we have built products compatible with these projects. For example, Storefront is compatible with popular Beaver Builder and Visual Composer.
But
We won’t pack anything you might not want, or may slow down your store
. We hope you can choose your features instead of being forced to have options that you will never use or discover trouble. Like Woocommerce, the store theory is like this: add the content you need, and only add the content you need when you need it.
Block, build your theme as you want
This is what we mentioned Building a martial arts place for module philosophy.
Added to Storefront much like a toy block
. They are stitched together to create larger, more complex and more colorful designs.
One piece of land, you can build some brilliant things. If you think about it, this is very similar to the operation of the store.
When you buy a bag of toy building blocks, you can follow the content displayed on the instructions. Or, you can use your creativity and ideas to build other things.
This is very similar to Storefront
: Using the build block we provide for you, you can design your store according to the guidance of our product and document settings. You can also use sub -themes, add extensions, etc.
Or, if you prefer the custom method, you can study the code and CSS in depth, and use the tools you want to use to customize everything in the way you like.
As if no one will tell you that you can’t build a tower with your brick, there is no, there is no no, there is no no, there is no, no no, no, no, no, no People will say, \”Hey, using Storefront to make that theme is unfair!\” After all, we Hope You do something cool.
Using our building blocks or using your own components to build Like WooCommerce, Storefront is completely open source. You can view the code in it and edit it at will. If you find that you need to update the content, you can even contribute to it.
We build this theme as very flexible, so you can add it in any way you feel comfortable
. If this means in -depth study CSS and start creating your own sub -theme from scratch, then you can do this -without any proprietary code or language to stop you. You can see how everything works, how to combine all constructive blocks and custom components to make Storefront work normally.
If the code is not your thing, it is not a problem. You can use PowerPack to customize one of the themes of Storefront or our sub -themes, add the function of extending the theme, and even try a third -party expansion to further enhance the design.
You can consider it as a toy building block that can be used with all other building blocks
, whether they are purchased by the \”official\” building blocks, hand -made, or purchased in other places of. The content you can build is not limited. If you want, you can manually make all blocks according to the instructions found for free.
Use Storefront for Woocommerce, the content or construction method you can build is not limited.
