Our Services

Custom Shopify OS 2.0 & Theme Engineering

We build luxury DTC stores from zero to live—custom Liquid sections, metafield & metaobject architectures, Figma-to-Shopify builds, and full brand systems. Everything stays 100% editable in the Theme Customizer so you never need a developer to change a headline.

Complex Store Logic, Configurators & Marketplaces

When a store needs something no app does, we build it: custom product & ring builders, local delivery logic (ZIP gating, lead-time date pickers, radius pricing, cutoff countdowns), and multi-vendor marketplaces with automated order splitting and Stripe Connect payouts.

Speed, CRO & Platform Migrations

Lean vanilla JS and CSS with zero bloated frameworks for green Core Web Vitals. We handle conversion optimization across product pages, collection filters, and cart upsells—plus seamless migrations from WooCommerce and WordPress where nothing gets lost.

Full-Stack Web Apps, CRM & n8n Automations

Custom React & Node.js applications, AI integrations, GoHighLevel agency systems, n8n workflow automations, and complete GA4, Google Tag Manager & Meta Pixel tracking—connecting your storefront to your CRM, email, and SMS flows.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Who will I be speaking and working with?

Every consultation and technical scoping call takes place directly with our CEO and Lead Architect, Farhad Ali—never a salesperson. You get direct access to senior engineering leadership backed by the full Nelston team.

How does your pricing work—hourly or fixed price?

Both. You can book a 30-minute consultation for $15 to review your store or idea, hire us at our standard $25/hr rate for ongoing development, or request a fixed-price quote with clear milestones after we review your brief.

Will my team be able to edit the Shopify store without a developer?

Yes, 100%. Every custom Liquid section, metafield, and metaobject we build is wired into Shopify's native Theme Customizer. We also provide handover documentation and a walkthrough video at launch so your team owns the store completely.

What types of projects do you specialize in?

We specialize in custom Shopify OS 2.0 stores, product configurators, local delivery systems (florists, farms, gourmet food), multi-vendor marketplaces, WooCommerce/WordPress migrations, custom React/Node.js apps, and n8n/GoHighLevel automations.

What are your response times and working hours?

We maintain an under-4-hour response time during US business hours (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM EST) and keep you updated at every stage from architecture through QA and launch.
