Trust in our ecosystem is built on the boring stuff being right. For years, public apps on Shopify could hold offline access tokens that never expired. If one leaked, it stayed valid forever. We’re changing that. Starting January 1, 2027, all apps in the App Store will need to use expiring offline access tokens. This change will help us keep merchant data secure and help app developers maintain merchant trust. More details on the shopify.dev changelog: shopify.dev/changelog/expi…

More control. Less noise. Next Generation Events are now available in developer preview

The Universal Commerce Protocol with @Shopify Catalog is now open to every developer. Since we announced UCP in January, it’s been powering agentic commerce across some of the biggest AI platforms in the world. Now, new tools are available to anyone who wants to build a shopping experience. That means a solo developer has the same commerce layer as the largest tech companies on the planet. One protocol. Millions of merchants. Billions of products. And every new experience a developer builds? That's a win for merchants too. More places for people to discover and buy their products. Nothing to set up. Commerce that can show up anywhere, inside anything, built by anyone.

More on the UCP skill and everything else that’s new from @igrigorik ↓

I've said it many times and I will continue saying that - @Shopify is an incredible platform to build on. It changed my life and I'm gonna be forever grateful for that. I hope our apps are changing someone's lives as well 🙏 Glad to be featured on their latest article: shopify.com/news/billion-d…

Last year, the developers building on @Shopify took home $1.3B. Behind that: a designer who bought his hometown football club with app revenue @malisauskasLT . Three co-founders who turned a lunch conversation into a $100M company @PostscriptIO. A builder who's been here since the first 100 apps and never looked back @isaacbowen. When the ecosystem wins, merchants win. shopify.com/news/billion-d…

Just shipped: new tools to help your apps get reviewed and published faster @jzazove has the full rundown

When you tell us something's broken, we fix it. App review times in the Shopify App Store got too slow. Devs were waiting weeks. So we rebuilt the submission pipeline.
