# Tabletop.Media - Headless Site
This is a repo for the headless Shopify vendor marketplace site [Tabletop.Media](https://tabletop.media), where we sell Tabletop Terrain, Miniatures, & accessories. It's built off of [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/), [Apollo](https://www.apollographql.com/), & [TailwindCSS](https://tailwindcss.com). It doesn’t use anything fancy or complicated, for the most part.
The site is a multi-vendor marketplace, so anyone can become a vendor & sell their stuff! It’s owned by my wife & I, so come check it out!
## Is this an official Shopify repo?
**Absolutely not.** It is for TabletopLand LLC which I personally own & not at all affiliated with Shopify Inc., Shopify International Ltd., Shopify Commerce Singapore Pte. Ltd., or any other Shopify subsidiary.
## Why didn’t you use Liquid?
I did originally & is currently what is in place, but wanted more control over what I put on the screen, the pages people saw, & the size of the site as a whole.
I also wanted to be less tempted by 3rd party products to do the things I needed, because I feel like they sometimes over-complicate what I’m looking for.
## Then why didn’t you use Hydrogen?
I think [Hydrogen](https://github.com/Shopify/hydrogen) is a work of art, it’s seriously fantastic. It is just a little heavy handed for what I really need. For a larger store running it’s core business off Shopify & wanting a more headless experience, it’s perfect. If I had a team of developers, however large, & Tabletop.Media wasn’t a side gig where I wasn’t going to experiment or wanted a more solid foundation that is officially supported by Shopify, I would definitely choose Hydrogen.
## Is this repo meant for other developers or shops to use?
No. I just believe in open source & there isn’t anything proprietary that I need to hide. If other developers want to take a look at the code for inspiration or take chunks, then feel free. It is under the [MIT License](https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/blob/main/MIT-LICENSE.txt).
