Japan DirectShopify Store

October, 2022

I was studying Shopify development because I thought that was the quickest way to start freelancing as a web developer and when it came time to start building a practice project I thought to myself, "Why would I spend all this time and effort building a store that will never go live? Why don't I just make a real store and learn Shopify development from the eyes of the business owner!"

I had been thinking about starting my own online store for quite some time after having some issues with marketplaces like eBay. I wanted to be able to sell online without having an automated overlord watching over my store with the power to shut me down instantly. So, my Shopify development studies were the perfect opportunity and motivation to finally start my own store.
