Who it's for

  • App developers building Shopify or BigCommerce apps who want backend, database, API, frontend, and hosting capabilities together.
  • Agencies and app studios delivering client projects that need managed deployment and hosting.
  • Solo developers building full-stack apps who want to work in a cloud IDE or with local tools.

How it fits your workflow

Create a new app or fork a template, then use Gadget's full-stack project environment to configure the database, backend actions, APIs, and React frontend.

Connect third-party APIs, set up webhook handling or data syncs, and test endpoints with the built-in JavaScript and GraphQL playgrounds. Use logs to troubleshoot during development.

Deploy the app's schema, backend, frontend, and configuration through Gadget's hosted infrastructure.
