Rearrange the storefront without a deploy.

Pages are rows of typed blocks, the feed reorders itself every five minutes, and a theme change moves every surface at once.

Merchandising waits on engineering.

A seasonal banner becomes a ticket, a branch, a review and a deploy window. By the time it ships the season has moved on, and nobody wants to touch it again until next year.

A page is a list of rows.

Every storefront surface is composed from the same ten block types. Drag one into a new position, publish, and the cache tag for that page drops. The deploy pipeline never hears about it.

The shop looks different after lunch.

Product order refreshes on a five-minute cycle. Everyone inside the same window sees the same order, so pages stay cached and the site stays fast.

Change one colour, every page follows.

Blocks render from your theme settings rather than from a stylesheet, so there is no template to hunt through and no stragglers left behind.

A half-finished block will not build.

Add a block type in one place and TypeScript lists every file that still has to handle it: the registry, the admin form, the renderer branch.

Product cards you can restyle.

This grid is a block you drop on a page, not a template you fork.

Another template language to learn?

No. The storefront is a Next.js app in your repository, and a block is a typed record. There is nothing between you and the JSX.

No proprietary runtime

Next.js

If you know Next.js and Tailwind, you already know how to change the storefront.

Real components

The UI is React in your repository. When the settings are not enough, you edit the component.

Two screens you use daily.

The product editor and the order view.

Copy, SEO, and alt text drafted · publish when you approve.

AI writes the listing, you approve it

Point Litestore at a product and it drafts the description, SEO fields, and alt text in your brand voice. Every draft lands in review — nothing goes live on its own.

Options and variants

One database

Reviews and orders are in the same database, so a verified-buyer badge is checked against a real order.
