This week, I launched my client's hybrid #Shopify store

[buildthebase.io @Build_The_Base]

Okay so that Instagram jank I was struggling with, and found a fix for earlier this week?

It turns out that it completely eliminated the “tap to scroll to top” UX in iOS.
Only on IG though.

Not a huge deal but, as someone who takes pride in…

Im currently not willing to give up on for this other build.

But, hey, on brighter news, I received product photos from my client Baked By Bri and updated the landing page
(Small update but meaningful because launch is next week 🤝🏽
