Creating a development store in Shopify involves setting up a separate environment where you can make changes, test new features, and experiment without affecting your live or production store. Here are the general steps to create a development store in Shopify:
Get Partners account / Log in
- Signup by clicking on “Join Now” button at “shopify.com/partners”
- If you already have account click on “Login”.
Access your Shopify Admin:
- Once logged in, go to your Shopify admin dashboard.
Create a New Store:
- Shopify doesn’t have a specific “development store” feature, but you can create a new store for testing purposes. To do this, click on “Stores” option.
- Click on “Add Store” Dropdown
- “Request Access to Store” for client’s store.
- “Create development store” to create new store.
- Fill the required details and click on “create development store”
Remember that Shopify doesn’t have a built-in feature specifically named “development store,” so you’ll need to use a trial store, duplicate an existing store, or use other strategies to create a separate environment for testing. Always be cautious when working on a live store and test extensively in the development environment before applying changes to the production store.
