Setting Up Shopify Store with Hydrogen & Oxygen

Build a Modern, Headless Shopify Store Using Shopify’s Own Full-Stack Toolkit

Hydrogen and Oxygen are Shopify’s official stack for building headless storefronts. Hydrogen provides a powerful React framework with commerce components, while Oxygen offers zero-config global hosting optimized for Shopify APIs.

Let’s walk through how to get started and deploy your first store using both.

What Are Hydrogen and Oxygen?

Hydrogen: React-based frontend framework by Shopify built for performance, interactivity, and API integration.
Oxygen: Shopify’s serverless hosting layer that deploys Hydrogen apps globally via edge infrastructure.

Requirements Before You Begin

Node.js (18+)
Shopify Partner account
Storefront API token
CLI: npm install -g @shopify/cli

Step-by-Step: Create Your Hydrogen Store

Create a new Hydrogen project:
shopify create hydrogen
Navigate into your project and start dev server:
npm install && npm run dev
Connect to your Shopify store and set the API key in .env.
Explore Hydrogen’s built-in components: <ProductCard />, <CartProvider />, etc.

Deploying on Oxygen (Shopify Hosting)

Once you’re happy with your Hydrogen app, run the following to push it live:

shopify hydrogen deploy

Oxygen handles CDN deployment, routing, and HTTPS globally—no server configuration required.
