The problem
Selling ink for the Epson EcoTank ET-8500 and ET-8550 in the Netherlands, Germany and the rest of Europe, with a fast shop and stock that is shared with another use.
Approach
One Astro codebase serves 114inkt.nl, 114tinte.de and 114ink.eu. The language follows from the domain, and all copy sits in three typed files.
Checkout runs through the Shopify Storefront API. After payment a webhook processes the order and sends the confirmation. Prices live in one place, and shipping is never hidden inside a price.
Result
The shop is live on three domains.
Worth noting
-
Three domains
Dutch, German and English from one codebase.
