Project Lunes
BetaCustom-built Shopify theme designed specifically for live selling, seamlessly integrating YouTube and Twitch streams directly into the shopping experience.
Challenge
Trading card dealers hosting live shows on platforms like YouTube and Twitch faced a significant friction point: customers had to constantly switch between the stream and the shop, leading to lost sales and poor user experience.
Solution
I developed a custom Shopify theme from the ground up that brings "QVC for trading cards" to life. The theme integrates directly with YouTube and Twitch, embedding both the live stream and chat functionality alongside browsable inventory. Customers can watch the show, participate in chat, and shop—all without leaving the website.
Technical Implementation
- Custom Liquid templating for Shopify theme architecture
- Real-time YouTube and Twitch API integration
- Responsive design ensuring optimal viewing on all devices
- Live chat embedding synchronized with streaming platforms
