Development stores ​

YouCan's development store serves as a sandbox for developing themes and apps. It enables you to test and refine your themes and apps during the development process.

Prerequisites ​

To create or access a development store, you need a YouCan Partner account.

Create a Development Store to Test Your Apps And Themes ​

Having a YouCan Partner account is the first step. You must also be the store owner to use a development store with YouCan CLI.

• From your Partner Dashboard, click Stores > New Store.
• In the Store details section, enter a name for authentication.
• Click Create Store.

Managing Multiple Development Stores ​

You can create multiple development stores, which allows you to work on various projects simultaneously or test different features in seperate environments.

To create additional stores, follow the same steps as above for each new development store.

YouCan CLI allows you to switch between different development stores.

Integration with the Seller Area ​

After developing a theme or an app, you can preview its functionality directly in the Seller Area Dashboard.

This integration provides a realistic view of how your development will appear for sellers and their customers, as changes in your dev store show up instantly.
