Building The Crappy Planet Store Based on the Shopify Debut Theme
Read this case study to learn how we designed and customized The Crappy Planet Shopify website, making it multilingual and customer-focused.
A consumer brand selling removable name labels for children needed a simple, fast online path to purchase. We delivered a cross-browser, mobile-ready Magento 2 storefront in 5 weeks with a 6-person team. The experience clarifies use cases, lets parents configure packs and see delivery windows before checkout, and supports quick reorders. Store staff can manage products, seasonal bundles, and content without developer help, giving the brand a maintainable base for campaigns and new label sets.
A consumer brand that sells removable name labels for children’s belongings needed an online store that helps parents quickly order labels, reduce lost items, and lower replacement costs. We served as the strategic engineering partner from requirements to deployment, delivering a cross-browser, mobile-ready Magento 2 store in 5 weeks with an expedited timeline at roughly 2× the usual pace.
Parents needed a simple way to understand what each label is for, select the right pack, and complete checkout from phone or desktop without friction. The business needed clear messaging that the labels can be removed when no longer needed, straightforward product selection and pricing, and operational controls to add products, update content, and run basic promotions without developer handoffs. Reliability, accessibility, and a clean path to purchase were baseline requirements.
We collected and analyzed requirements with the client, defined an MVP scope and acceptance criteria, and ran a weekly cadence aligned to the 5-week deadline. We designed the platform architecture and tech stack from scratch, developed frontend and backend components against the provided designs, executed QA against the agreed criteria, and completed production deployment with a structured handover so internal teams could operate the store confidently.
We delivered a single storefront that works consistently across modern desktop and mobile browsers. The experience keeps shoppers focused on selecting the right labels and checking out quickly, while giving the business simple tools to manage the catalog and site content.
Key specifics, functionality that drives value
The store went live in 5 weeks with a 6-person team, covering desktop and mobile with consistent UX across major browsers. Parents move from selection to checkout in fewer steps, and the business team maintains the catalog and publishes content updates on its own schedule. The brand now has a maintainable base it can extend with new label packs, seasonal pages, and simple campaigns as demand grows.
