Code the frontend. Connect Arky underneath.
Start with the frontend stack the project deserves, then connect only the Arky modules it needs. The admin, API, SDK, and backend workflows stay behind the custom experience.
- Design the storefront
- Connect products and cart through the SDK
- Let Arky handle orders and checkout state
import { createArkyStore } from "arky-sdk/storefront-store";
const arky = createArkyStore({
baseUrl: "https://api.arky.io",
storeId: "your-store-id",
locale: "en",
});
await arky.setup({ hydrateCart: true });
// Use the module helpers your frontend needs.
// The client keeps full control over markup, routing, and UX.Where a developer starts.
