In this video we are going to see how to use Javascript frameworks such as Vue, Svelte or React in a Liquid theme. This approach is intended for when for one reason or the other you need to reach for one of those frameworks to build a section of your Shopify theme. For building the whole storefront of a store using a framework the recommended approach is either Shopify Hydrogen or using Shopify’s API to build a headless store in the technology of your choosing.
