After months of hard work, we are excited to release Easy Content Builder (V2) with a complete overhaul of the code base, UI, new features, and improvements.

Let's take a closer look at what's new in the Easy Content Builder (V2).

Overhaul the whole code base

Our team did go the extra mile and re-wrote the whole Easy Content Builder's code base to optimize the app further and made sure our new UI blends in nicely.

For the past few weeks we have been exploring new features and updating every aspect of our Easy Content Builder (ECB) app. It’s been a while in the making; now, we’re happy to keep you informed on the latest updates to the ECB app. This release focuses on adding new product page templates, improving the core components of the app, and adding new features like on-scroll animations and column/row gaps. 

Enable animations on scroll

Easy Content Builder now supports the on-scroll animation, and it lets you apply different types of animation to elements within each section as you scroll down the page. Below are the different kinds of animation that are available for you to choose from:

I am excited to let you know that we have made an important update to our Easy Content Builder app for Shopify. There is a new FREE version of the Easy Content Builder app. There are no hidden costs, meaning it is 100% free to use, and you can stay on it as long as you like.

Coming up with a logo is a crucial step when it comes to building your Shopify store.

Whether you design a logo from scratch yourself, pick a logo generated by a logo maker, or hire a professional logo designer, you may end up going through the following questions when preparing a Logo Brief or picking your final logo:

• How do I know I picked the wrong logo?
• Which logo file formats do I need for my Shopify store and why?
• (If you decide to design your logo yourself) How to create an aesthetic and meaningful logo that goes far beyond a pretty visual?

I put together a logo design toolkit that assists you in the process of designing or evaluating your logo for your Shopify store:

1. Brainstorming
Research Questionnaire
2. Logo design direction
Positioning: USP, target audience.
Find your logo ideas: Well-designed logo directories, logo-related hashtags
Select the logo types: Abstract, Typographic, Emblem, etc.
3. Logo design toolkit:
Color (Color meaning & toolkit)
Typography (Font toolkit)
Logo files for your Shopify store:
Web (70 dpi) vs. Print (300 dpi)
Raster (jpeg, png, gif) vs. vector (ai, eps, svg)
Best free logo makers
4. Evaluate & pick the right logo for your Shopify store
5. Reference logos by shapes (circles, squares or rectangles, horizontal lines, vertical lines)

Nov 30, 2023 Update: In case you are interested, Easy Content Builder now supports metaobject templates.

Dawn is the first free Online Store 2.0 theme maintained and built by Shopify. This flagship theme was first announced in June 2021 at Unite, along with the launch of the Online Store 2.0.

Since then, Dawn has become a Shopify reference theme and is used as the basis for all free Shopify themes. All Shopify development stores created after 29 June 2021 use Dawn as their default theme.

Upon our observation, we’ve recently seen many upvotes from the Shopify developers despite Dawn’s ‘minimal set of features’; a few to name: “The Dawn theme is best, you can make it as easy or go advanced,” “I find the Dawn theme is a great theme for fashion,” “Free theme: I’d go for Dawn. The theme that most Shopify themes are built off so a good starting point if you need further development later.”...

Let’s find out why Dawn is the ideal way to start configuring your Shopify store.
