A demonstration of Astro's experimental live content collections feature using a Shopify loader that fetches data from mock.shop at runtime.
- Live Data Fetching - Products and collections loaded at request time, not build time
- Type-Safe Filtering - Rich filtering capabilities with TypeScript support
- Error Handling - Robust error handling with custom error types
- Cache Optimization - Smart cache hints for performance
- Real-Time Updates - No rebuilds needed when data changes
This demo showcases how to build live collection loaders:
src/loaders/shopify/
- Modular loader architecturesrc/live.config.ts
- Live collections configurationsrc/pages/
- Runtime data fetching examples
- Homepage (
/
) - Featured products and collections overview - Products (
/products
) - Filterable product listing with search, sorting, and availability filters - Product Details (
/products/[handle]
) - Individual product pages with variants
Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:
/
├── public/
│ └── favicon.svg
├── src/
│ ├── layouts/
│ │ └── Layout.astro
│ └── pages/
│ └── index.astro
└── package.json
