Candy Claws

"Have worked with Yoon over a long period now for our ecommerce website and he has always been super efficient with his work. Everything always comes back within the designated timeframe. He is the best dev that I have worked with hands done in terms of his technical ability and the end results of his projects. His attention to detail is fantastic and I have never had any issues post launch on anything he’s worked on for our site. Highly recommend."

Intro

Candy Claws sells salon-quality, reusable press-on nails made from soft acrylic. The brand provides a DIY way to achieve a professional manicure at home, with products that are easy to apply and last for up to 2-3 weeks.

Problem

As Candy Claws continued to grow, the team needed ongoing development support to clean up their existing Shopify theme, resolve bugs and improve performance, while also introducing more flexible functionality for their promotional campaigns.

In particular, they needed a free gift system that could support multiple spending tiers and different Shopify Markets without requiring developer changes every time they launched a new promotion.

Approach

I first cleaned up the existing theme, removing outdated code, fixing bugs and improving performance to create a more reliable foundation for future development.

I then built a multi-tier free gift system that works across different Shopify Markets. Using Metaobject, the team can configure each gift, spending threshold for each market without touching the theme code.

The cart automatically adds eligible gifts and shows customers their progress toward the next tier. I also used Shopify Flow to let the team swap their standard “Mystery Free Gift” for campaign-specific gifts when needed.
