Public roadmap · Updated June 2026
104 lessons are live across six modules right now, about half of the finished curriculum. Below is the whole picture, with rough dates where they exist. Things shift as beta feedback rolls in, so treat the dates as intent, not promises.
Curriculum progress
104 live · ~187 planned
The six modules
Module 1 · Your first days
20 lessons · all live
Boot the CLI, render Shopify data into templates, branch on truthiness, iterate arrays, compose with assigns. The daily working vocabulary every senior Shopify dev types without thinking.
Module 2 · Your first real PR
24 lessons · all live
Read the data Shopify hands every template: product, variant, collection, cart, customer. Plus metafields, and the judgment call of when to define one instead of hard-coding a value.
Module 3 · Architecture week
37 lessons · all live
Sections, theme blocks, snippets, templates, schemas, app blocks, layouts, color schemes: the full Horizon architecture story. Includes the first AI-output review lessons.
Module 4 · Big feature ship
20 of 25 lessons live · shipping weekly · completing June 2026
Cart drawer, collection filtering, predictive search, free-shipping bar, real interactive features built on a client-side Shopify storefront engine. The work agencies bill four figures for. Playable now, new lessons land weekly.
Module 5 · Apps & custom data
3 of 48 lessons live · sneak peek · July 2026
When to reach for an app instead of a theme edit. The GraphQL Admin API, metaobjects, Shopify Functions, modeling custom data against a real development store. Three lessons are live now as a sneak peek.
Module 6 · Launch week
37 lessons planned · August 2026
Launch readiness: defensive code, accessibility, performance, theme check, debugging in production, hosted customer accounts. The skills a senior dev gets called for at 4pm on a Friday, ending in a capstone storefront.
Beyond the modules · being considered
Standalone how-to articles (free-shipping bar, review stars, cart-drawer animations), indexed for search and useful even if you never take a lesson.
Per-lesson tone tuning, multi-turn conversations, optional voice mode. The current mentor is a single-shot nudge; v2 is a real conversation partner during a lesson.
Agency / studio plan: seat-based pricing, an admin dashboard, per-team progress reporting. For agencies onboarding junior Shopify devs at scale.
Stay in the loop
One short note when Module 4 finishes, one when v1 launches with paid pricing. Anyone on this list before launch gets early-tester pricing.
