Build a faster, more flexible, fully custom storefront — designed and delivered by Omnycode

Omnycode specializes in Shopify Headless and BigCommerce Headless development.
Our team combines modern frameworks, robust APIs, and enterprise-level infrastructure to deliver fully custom storefronts built for performance and scale.

Headless approach lets your business bypass theme limitations and build unique customer experiences.

What Is Headless eCommerce?

Headless eCommerce separates your storefront (frontend) from your commerce engine (backend).
If you’ve worked with platforms like Shopify, BigCommerce, or any other SaaS solution, you know they give you both a backend and a visual editor. While these tools are powerful, they still limit how far you can push design, UX, page structure, or custom features.

A headless architecture keeps the SaaS backend you rely on—products, orders, checkout, payments, inventory—but fully detaches it from the frontend.
Your website’s design, layout, and interactions are built outside the platform’s Page Builder. That means:

  • You are not restricted by theme blocks or platform limitations.
  • Your B2B and B2C customers can have completely different layouts and journeys powered by the same backend.
  • Frontend and backend communicate through powerful APIs, giving you unlimited flexibility over user experience.

Why Brands Choose Headless

▶︎ More Freedom

No more “platform limitation” responses. Your design, structure, animations, landing pages, and navigations become fully custom — crafted around your brand, not predefined blocks. This is especially important for brands that rely on storytelling in their marketing.

▶︎ More Performance Optimization

With a custom frontend, your developers control the entire codebase. A professionally built headless store is typically 20–30% faster than a traditional SaaS storefront — resulting in better SEO, better conversion, and smoother browsing.

▶︎ More Personalization

Headless allows you to deliver different experiences to different audiences:

  • First-time vs returning customers
  • B2B vs B2C
  • Different regions and languages
  • VIP customers
  • Seasonal campaigns and product drops

Navigation, offers, blocks, layouts, and journeys can all dynamically adjust.

Shopify Headless Development

How We Build Shopify Headless Store:

Backend:
You continue using Shopify for products, orders, inventory, payments, and checkout. You stay fully inside the Shopify ecosystem.

Frontend:
We use Hydrogen — Shopify’s React-based framework built on Remix — to create a fast, modern, app-like storefront. Hydrogen connects to Shopify’s Storefront API and runs on Oxygen hosting.

Content Management:
We integrate a CMS (e.g., Contentful, Sanity, DataCMS) so your team can manage landing pages, multi-language content, blogs, and storytelling layouts without touching Liquid or theme files.

BigCommerce Headless Development

BigCommerce provides one of the most flexible headless infrastructures in the industry. With full API access, you can build a completely custom frontend layered over a robust, scalable backend.

How we Build Bigcommerce Headless Store:

1. Storefront Layer

Your customers interact with a custom-built frontend, that’s not limited by Bigcommerce template anymore.

Based on your requirements we choose a CMS such as Contentful, DatoCMS, Sanity, or even WordPress.

2. Microservices Layer

This layer extends functionality with additional systems integrated with Bigcommerce API, for example:

  • PIM or ERP
  • CRM
  • OMS
  • 3rd party applications
