🔎 Description:

Metafields make it possible to store additional information for articles, blogs, collections, customers, orders, pages, products and other important objects in Shopify.

For the longest time, metafields could only be added by using apps such as metefields guru. Now we find a new native metafield editor directly in our Shopify Admin dashboard.

The new theme editor lets merchants add new meta fields and properties without APIs or any form of coding. This gives you much more flexibility when it comes to your store’s content. Shopify users are now free to add the content they want to their product pages.

Alongside the Online Store 2.0 updates, Shopify also introduced new metafield filters. You can apply these Liquid filters in order to output metafield information in a standard format.

👋 Are you new to the channel?

Hey, this is Jan, awesome meeting you. :-)

On this channel, we help people go from zero to paid Shopify developers.

Personally, I graduated in mechanical engineering, which might be the second most German thing one can do, probably right after having a good taste for beer.

Long story short, being a mechanical engineer just wasn't for me, and working as a freelance web developer checked A LOT more boxes.

✔ I wanted to be my own boss.
✔ I wanted to be in control of my life.
(Especially income-, time- and location wise.)
✔ I wanted to choose who I work with
✔ I wanted to learn about new technologies
✔ I knew coding would be a good skill to have
✔ I finally felt like working on making my own dreams come true.

The only problem was that I was lacking the technical and sales skills to make that happen right away. And this is also where all this "me, me, me" finally ties into something that's all about "you, you, you", because the truth is ... it could have been done a lot faster if I had just known how.

If you're unsure which essential skills you need to get started as a freelance developer then you're in the right place. As a huge fan of online education, I created this channel to provide you with the exact information and mental frameworks that I would have needed when getting started.

If you're looking for more personal guidance and direct feedback from industry pros, we also offer a clear path from start to finish through our Bootcamp Program Freemote.

Either way, I'm looking forward to hearing more about your journey.

Have an awesome day,
Jan :-)
