Shopify鈥檚 primary product is an e-commerce platform for online stores and retail point-of-sale systems. In order to adapt to the recent increase in desire for in-person shopping experiences, the team explored various ideas for a next-generation retail experience that can bridge in-person and online shopping. The team focused on researching many concepts but honed in on building an application that facilitates in-store try-ons of items curated online, with the ability to be extended to in-store kiosks.
