Shopify developer & designer building stores that actually convert.

I'm Haris — based in Dubai, working with brands worldwide. For the past six years I've designed and built custom Shopify themes and apps for stores that need more than a template.

About

Design sense plus real engineering.

Most Shopify freelancers are either designers who can't build, or developers who can't design. I've spent years doing both — which means the store you imagine is the store that ships.

My work spans custom theme development, private apps built around a store's exact workflow, and public apps shipped to the Shopify App Store. Whatever the project, the goal is the same: a fast store that turns visitors into customers.

What I can do for your store.

01

Custom Theme Development

Bespoke Shopify themes designed and built from scratch — responsive, fast, and easy for your team to manage day to day.

02

Custom Shopify Apps

Private apps built around your exact workflow: bundles, subscriptions, dashboards, ERP integrations — the things off-the-shelf apps can't do.

03

Public App Development

Full apps built and published to the Shopify App Store, including billing, onboarding, and the App Store review process.

04

Store Setup & Migration

Complete store builds and platform migrations — products, customers, and SEO redirects moved without downtime or lost data.

05

Speed Optimization

Core Web Vitals audits and fixes: leaner code, smarter loading, and measurably faster pages on real devices.

06

Conversion Optimization

UX improvements across product pages, cart, and checkout that lift the numbers that matter — not just how the store looks.
