THALÉON
A Mediterranean wellness brand, launched headless.
The challenge
A new supplements brand wanted a storefront that matched a premium photographic design and could open a pre-sale before launch, without duplicating its catalogue or pricing outside Shopify.
The solution
Shopify stays the source of truth for products, prices, cart and checkout, called server-side from Next.js. A NestJS API with PostgreSQL owns only what Shopify does not: newsletter, reviews and reservations, with Klaviyo handling email.
Engineering
Pre-sale figures are always read from Shopify and checkout is withheld unless every line is priced correctly. A local catalogue keeps the storefront fully runnable without Shopify credentials.
The result
Pre-sale storefront live, with the full post-launch store ready on its own branch.
