Installation

Run the following command:

yarn create theme-packer-theme ./path/to/theme
# or if you prefer npm

Connecting to your store

Create a .env file with the following keys:

SHOPIFY_STORE=

# The ID of theme you wish to develop on/deploy to

# The API key allowing Themekit to modify your theme
SHOPIFY_PASSWORD=

You might also wish to add the following:

# A file used as ignorelist
