Template Details

astro-njx-boutique is a static storefront theme for small fashion brands, studios, and boutiques, built with Astro. Pages are rendered as pure HTML at build time. The project includes a JSON mock product catalog, so it runs locally without any external account. By setting the COMMERCE_PROVIDER environment variable, the same set of pages can switch to reading real products from the Shopify Storefront API, with checkout hosted by Shopify.

Feature-wise, the theme includes a full-width homepage, collection displays, a product catalog with client-side tag filtering and sorting, product detail pages with size and gallery lightbox, related recommendations, and a persistent shopping bag based on localStorage (supporting quick add, quantity adjustment, single-line removal, and clear all). Search uses an inline index, opens with the / key, and makes no network requests; favorites have a count badge and a dedicated page; light/dark theme switching has no flash on refresh. Site copy is centralized in two constant files for easy wholesale replacement of brand text.

Usage limitations: this entry is the free version under the MIT license from the public repository, and does not include the paid Pro upgrade mentioned in the materials (such as customer accounts, reviews, etc.). Third-party assets like demo images, fonts, and icons must be checked separately under their respective licenses; the code's MIT license alone is not sufficient to determine their status. Domains, hosting, Shopify, and other external services may incur separate charges. The theme's provider interface is located in src/lib/commerce/; the materials state that WooCommerce, Medusa, or a custom API can be integrated by implementing a TypeScript interface, but no ready-made implementations are provided.

Is it right for your project?

Use Cases

  • Build a static product display and checkout storefront for a small fashion brand or boutique
  • Quickly preview page structure and interactions with the mock catalog, then connect to real Shopify products
  • An ecommerce frontend that needs editorial-style typography, full-width imagery, and light/dark theme switching
  • Deploy the build output to Cloudflare Pages or other static hosting platforms

Suitable For

  • Small fashion brands, studios, and boutiques
  • Developers who want to run a storefront as a static site and avoid managing their own servers
  • Merchants already using Shopify who want a custom editorial-style frontend
  • Astro projects that need wholesale replacement of copy and design tokens

Getting started & customization

Use these recorded setup notes alongside the repository instructions for your chosen version.

  1. 1

    After cloning the repository, run npm install, copy .env.example to .env, use the built-in mock catalog by default, and start local development with npm run dev

  2. 2

    To connect to Shopify, create an app in the admin and grant Storefront API read permissions, set COMMERCE_PROVIDER to shopify, and fill in PUBLIC_SHOPIFY_DOMAIN and PUBLIC_SHOPIFY_STOREFRONT_TOKEN

  3. 3

    Product data can be edited in src/data/mock-catalog.json, and images under public/products/ can be replaced

  4. 4

    Brand copy is modified in src/constants/components.ts and src/constants/pages.ts; design tokens are adjusted in the @theme block of src/styles/global.css

  5. 5

    When deploying to static hosting, configure the same environment variables in the platform dashboard; for Cloudflare Pages, use wrangler pages deploy to upload the dist directory

# astro-njx-boutique — editorial fashion theme for Astro

[![Deploy with Vercel](https://vercel.com/button)](https://vercel.com/new/clone?repository-url=https://github.com/njbSaab/astro-njx-boutique) [![Deploy to Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/img/deploy/button.svg)](https://app.netlify.com/start/deploy?repository=https://github.com/njbSaab/astro-njx-boutique)

> Part of **[njX Astro Themes](https://njxui.dev/themes)** — ecommerce storefronts & landing pages by one author, free today, Pro versions on the way.

A complete boutique storefront built with **Astro 5 + Tailwind CSS v4**: serif editorial
typography, full-bleed imagery, oxblood accents — wired for **Shopify** out of the box and
deployable to **Cloudflare Pages** (or any static host) in minutes.

**Live demo → [astro-njx-boutique.pages.dev](https://astro-njx-boutique.pages.dev)**
Everything in the demo — bag, checkout, search, favorites, dark mode — is this theme running on mock data.

![astro-njx-boutique home page](submit-assets/home.png)

## What is this?

astro-njx-boutique is a **static storefront**: Astro renders every page to plain HTML at
build time, so the site is fast by default and hosting is essentially free. Product data
comes from a pluggable provider — start with the bundled JSON catalog, then flip one
environment variable and the same pages build from your **real Shopify store**, with
Shopify's hosted checkout handling payments.

Made for small fashion brands, ateliers and boutiques that want an editorial custom
storefront without running a server.

## Features

- 👗 **Full boutique flow** — full-bleed hero, collection shelf, catalog with client-side
  tag filters (with piece counts) & sorting, product pages with sizes, sticky 3:4 gallery
  + lightbox, related pieces
- 🛍 **Working bag** — persistent (localStorage), quick-add from cards, quantity controls,
  line remove, clear all; hands off to Shopify's hosted checkout
- 🔌 **Two data providers, one switch** — `COMMERCE_PROVIDER=mock` (bundled JSON, no
  accounts needed) or `shopify` (live products over the Storefront API)
- 🔎 **Instant search** — inline index, opens with `/`, zero network requests
- ❤️ **Favorites** — heart any piece, badge counter, dedicated `/favorites` page
- 🌗 **Light & dark theme** — one click, no flash on reload
- 🤝 **Trust details on every product** — shipping, returns and repairs lines, all from config
- 📝 **All copy in two constants files** — rebrand every text on the site without touching markup
- 📄 **20 pages total** — about, contacts, FAQ, account UI, privacy, terms, honest 404
- ⚡️ **Zero client framework** — a few small vanilla scripts; no React/Vue/hydration cost

| Catalog | Dark |
| --- | --- |
| ![Collection page](submit-assets/collection.png) | ![Dark theme](submit-assets/dark.png) |

## Quick start

```bash
git clone https://github.com/njbSaab/astro-njx-boutique.git my-boutique
cd my-boutique
npm install
cp .env.example .env        # defaults to the mock catalog
npm run dev                 # http://localhost:4321
```

That's it — the boutique runs on the bundled demo catalog (`src/data/mock-catalog.json`).
Edit that file to see your own pieces immediately.

## Connect your Shopify store

1. In Shopify admin: **Settings → Apps and sales channels → Develop apps → Create an app.**
2. Give it the *Storefront API* scopes (unauthenticated read products/collections/checkouts).
3. Install the app and copy the **Storefront API access token** (this token is public-safe).
4. Update `.env`:

```bash
COMMERCE_PROVIDER=shopify
PUBLIC_SHOPIFY_DOMAIN=your-store.myshopify.com
PUBLIC_SHOPIFY_STOREFRONT_TOKEN=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
```

5. `npm run build` — the same pages now build from your live catalog, and the bag creates
   a real Shopify cart and redirects to your hosted checkout.

The provider interface lives in `src/lib/commerce/` — adding WooCommerce, Medusa or your
own API means implementing one small TypeScript interface.

## Deploy

Any static host works. For Cloudflare Pages:

```bash
npm run build
npx wrangler pages deploy dist --project-name my-boutique
```

Set the same env vars in your host's dashboard for CI builds. The whole boutique fits
comfortably in Cloudflare's free tier.

## Make it yours

- **All copy in two files** — every piece of text lives in `src/constants/components.ts`
  (header, footer, drawers, bag, search) and `src/constants/pages.ts` (home, about, FAQ,
  product page, …). Rebrand the whole boutique without touching a single component.
- **Brand & colors** — design tokens in `src/styles/global.css` (`@theme` block, dark
  overrides in `.dark`; radius tokens are flattened for the editorial look — restore them
  for a softer feel). Fonts load in `src/layouts/Layout.astro`.
- **Catalog** — `src/data/mock-catalog.json` + photos in `public/products/`, or connect Shopify.
- **Layout & sections** — plain `.astro` files: header/footer/drawers in
  `src/layouts/Layout.astro`, one file per page in `src/pages/`.

## Sibling theme & Pro

Prefer a general-goods look? **[astro-njx-store](https://github.com/njbSaab/astro-njx-store)**
is the same engine with a warm paper-and-pine design. An extended **Pro** version (customer
accounts, reviews, more sections) is on the way — watch the repo to get notified.
