App Functions run your custom code inside Swell. Write a JavaScript function and it fires on store events, a cron schedule, or an HTTP endpoint you define, with the SDK already authenticated when it runs. The CLI proxies live store events to your machine for local testing.

Introducing test environments.
This is a safe way to develop and test code without interfering with your production store data. Test and live environments each have separate databases and API keys, with a simple toggle in the admin dashboard to switch between them.
Shopify Apps are broken
@swellcommerce is building an App framework to go head-to-head with Shopify's ecosystem. Here are some highlights:
- Swell Apps can be open-source, where merchants only pay for the infrastructure to run serverless functions (if the App needs any)
- Swell Apps can introduce whole new *first-class* APIs to a merchant's backend, as well as custom fields on existing models, CMS capabilities in the dashboard.
- Flexibility is next-level. Custom webhook events, formulas, embedded UIs
- A brand-new App platform = big opportunity for early adopters
It will enable previously-impossible business models to work out of the box. And with this level of integration, AI will become capable of building custom Apps for you (!!)
We're welcoming new partners to a private App program now. Send a note to partners@swell.is to get involved
Some thoughts on the shopify app store from a recent chat with @mrloo.
It seems that a lot of developers are super not thrilled with a lot of things about the App Store. Again, I thought everybody in the Shopify world was happy with apps, like you're not dealing with code overlapping like with Magento, such as code level break conflicts.
But now it's like you have other types of conflicts between multiple SaaS apps; maybe it's front-end, or they are just not integrating the way you'd want them to, whatever.
Yeah. And then there's the issue that there are too many of them. So, everybody is overloaded with all these apps. And then people are also frustrated about the expense of the apps. Because, as a whole, the SaaS industry is increasing prices all the time. And so you get apps that do well and then you're paying $750 a month for something and you've got 15 other apps. Yeah. So that's been interesting to see some of the dynamics there.
Mark:
I bet with MESA, more of those dynamics are at play because there are so many copycat apps for basically everything. So, it's about how do you stand out in the App Store? I've heard it's very expensive to try to use their advertising on the App Store.
You'll get an install and you pay per install. You might pay a hundred or $200 for an install, and then someone uninstalls it two minutes later. It's just like "I just paid $200 for a conversion, but it didn't really go anywhere."
Me:
I've seen people talk about that a lot on Twitter. I haven't dealt with any of our App Store stuff. I do think we have some ads running there, as I've done some searches and seen MESA come up. I should ask the team about that. But I've seen people post about this, like Gil and Dennis Hegstad, I think. Yeah, it seems like it's a common issue. And then I think a lot of well-funded apps, especially newer ones, don't really care that much about the App Store. They're going after the plus market or somewhere towards the higher end of the Shopify market.
