The website for #BrightworkVol01 is now a permanent archive.

Six talks and a panel. Video, slides, and full transcripts for every one of them. Plus the complete photo gallery from the day, free to download.

I'd say it goes without saying but it really needs to be said that we were so fortunate to have the support of not just the amazing community that showed up, but the sponsors who trusted @dear_trudence and I to make this happen.

Thank you @StoqApp, @Hookdeck, @GetAltera, @JordanFinners, @sufio_com, @TSupportHeroes, @judgeme, @foxsellapp, @trulyfinepixels, @ShipIntuitively, @patjakubik, @DiscountKit, @checkout_links, and @CleanSizeCharts

@heysandy801 @shop @StoqApp NICE! Smoooooth

[sandesh 🇨🇦 @heysandy801]

Sign in with @shop is a magical experience. it just works.

and it makes signing up for back in stocks just one tap. now live for all Shopify stores on @StoqApp.

early rollout was quiet, but merchants are eager to try new things - a few found & enabled it already. sign in + subscribe experience is super smooth; we'll likely ask more brands to try it out!

@VicVijayakumar I was a defensive lineman.

In high school, offensive and defensive lineman would compete during two-a-days to see how much weight we could gain back in between practices to see who lost the least amount of weight lol

It was a simpler time...

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@VicVijayakumar I was a growing boy...

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@stoychev @consentmo Glad it turned out all ok for yall (and the merchants you support). Well done!

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@raulgalerad @KatieKeithBarn2 Yes exactly! This has been going on for a long time but now it just gets accelerated...the problem is you can burn a lot of time and tokens in the wrong direction before you finally realize you don't actually want to be a developer lol

So, there'll be a bounce back for sure.

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

Yeah I was surprised recently to see a bunch of other local shops, WP and such, still posting working with clients and stuff.

Sort of assumed brochure type websites or whatever are dead but established businesses still want to pay people who know what they're doing for their expertise.

Taste, design, direction, strategy. Code is just the tool. Smaller or more personal businesses I think have benefited from AI being way more accessible but established businesses still know they need the help.

They're burning all their tokens making more money at the things they're good at lol

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@patrickbjohnson @philwinkle Lol maybe it's all of us testing if it works for our brands 😬

📌 I want to chat with partners, almost always. I like to meet new partners. I do work on projects, so I might not always respond in real time.

I do regular office hours: https://t.co/PI3fX666nX

I usually can't help you unless you've already gone through the proper core channels (Partner Support, developer forums, etc.)

X DMs are terrible for me as communication channel – find another way to get in touch. Guess my email. Ask a friend, lots of people have my info.

(this is my new pinned post)

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@raulgalerad @KatieKeithBarn2 X is a bubble is one I have to remind myself of constantly...

Talk to people who aren't deeply entrenched in this stuff and they're like, "who's claude?"

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@davidbehrend Hahahaha so I'm not the only one

[Aimée Serafim @aimeeserafim]

427 trees planted during @ShopQuestHQ 🤯

Huge thank you to @GollaSougandhi for all the help, and to @adhithya_vijai and @PrakharS96 for making space for us and being the absolute best 💚

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

@aimeeserafim @thegoodapi @ShopQuestHQ @GollaSougandhi @adhithya_vijai @PrakharS96 Whoah over 400?! Amazing!

[Taylor Page @TRPage_dev]

Yeah biggest thing with coffee I think is that not only not drinking too late but also not too early.

You should be up for an hour or so before the first sip so your body can wake up naturally.

I think people miss too you can still fall asleep drinking coffee later in day but sleep quality will be poorer.

Shopify is taking app security seriously too.

Breaches hurt the whole system, not just the individual apps with poor sec policies. How can you trust installing apps if you're seeing others?

Shopify's app security skill is a solid start but there's more you can do:

i'm looking for someone to join my team in 🇨🇦. apply or dm me with something you've built to help make recruiting better. use ai everywhere else, but please don't use it to write your dm 😅 https://t.co/Vc4K5dcYOA

[PJ Celis @celispj]

To all Shopify app developers looking to beef up their security right now:

Note that Anthropic runs a "Cyber Verification Program" to request access to Mythos for security purposes.

The Defense Access tier tends to get approved in minutes. Worth using!

I really need to build out an MCP to make this info easier to access/play around with...

Lol and also just seeing this for the metadata 😮‍💨

Pretty sure 12 new themes in the last 30 days is the new record 😳

Loads of new presets.

Not a lot of movement on price though interestingly. Figured closed to BFCM someone would try something. Several increases but not descreases.
