📦 Dynamic Inventory Checking

The Shopify product inventory is being checked in realtime, therefore no rebuilding and redeploy is needed when a product goes out of stock. This avoids problems where products could still be available even though they're out of stock due to redeploy delay.

🚀 Quick start

1. Create a Gatsby site.

   Use the Gatsby CLI to create a new site, specifying this starter.

   # create a new Gatsby site using this starter
   gatsby new my-shopify-store https://github.com/AlexanderProd/gatsby-shopify-starter

2. Start developing.

   Navigate into your new site’s directory and start it up.

   cd my-shopify-store/
   gatsby develop

3. Open the source code and start editing!

   Your site is now running at http://localhost:8000!

   Note: You'll also see a second link: http://localhost:8000/___graphql. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the Gatsby tutorial.

   Open the my-shopify-store directory in your code editor of choice and edit src/pages/index.js. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!

4. Connect your own Shopify store.

   Open both .env files located in the root directory of your page end replace the credentials with your own. Don't forget to restart Gatsby for your store to be loaded!
