Jeff Chew

Developer at Magical Apps · Toronto, Canada

8 years in e-commerce

I came to Magical Apps from the agency world, where I spent years building custom Shopify stores. Now I get to build the tools that those stores depend on.

My background in store development means I think about our apps the way a merchant thinks about them: will this work with my theme? Is the setup obvious? Will it break my checkout?

I contribute guides and how-to content because I remember what it was like to be on the other side, hunting for clear answers.

What Jeff knows best

  • Shopify theme development and storefront design
  • App-theme compatibility and styling
  • Merchant onboarding and user experience
  • Technical writing and documentation

Things you might not know
