We Rewrote Our Angular 18 App in React 20 and Increased Developer Velocity by 40% Last quarter, our engineering team made the bold call to rewrite our 3-year-old Angular 18 production application in React 20. After 6 months of development, we cut over to the new stack with zero downtime, and the results have exceeded our expectations: we’ve measured a 40% increase in developer velocity, alongsid

I have a

The metaobject stuff was hard, but the Shopify platform stuff was harder. Here are three traps that aren't obvious from the docs. Week 1 of development.
