Here is a quick theme template to experiment with Shopify's design system for Admin Apps called Polaris. The goal is to see if it works with Astro.
npm create astro@latest -- --template getmarkus/astro-shopify-polarisLive Demo. Please keep in mind this is a work in progress and not functionally complete.
Breaking down this implementation into three broad steps.
So far so good, Shopify's design system and React components seem to work well together on first attempt. The only core requirement was to make sure the Components are always wrapped in their App provider.
As would be expected Shopify has requirements for building Apps and Admin extentions that developers need to follow.
Shopify recommends and provides remix and node templates to get started. So this next experiment will be to see if Astro also works.
Are their any Astro gotchas? I doubt it but this last step will test it out. Need to makes sure this will cover Shopify's App Design Guidelines
