Build the functionalities merchants need

Leverage Shopware's extension APIs to build unique extensions that boost merchants businesses. Use the powerful plugin system to build highly custom extensions or build apps using your platform of choice.

How to start

It doesn't take more than a text editor to get started developing apps. The easiest way to get going is through creating a Sandbox. Developer sandboxes are Shopware environments that you can use to test the API, develop Apps or explore features of the Shopware platform.

Starter guides

The amount of topics to start with can be overwhelming. For that reason we have prepared a handful of step-by-step tutorials to follow along that make you familiar with some of our concepts:

Product areas

If you prefer to dig into a specific topic directly, choose from one of the product areas. You can also find them on the left all the time.

App Scripts

Leverage App Scripts to customize the checkout or fetch additional data in your Storefront.

Customize templates

Custom templates let you extend or modify the appearance of parts of your storefront.
