Hi, I'm building a shopify sales channel and have been using the build a sales channel app docs as a guide. Right now I'm working on connecting billing following these docs but am hitting some walls and struggling to see how things fit together. Would it be possible to somehow get access to the Mockingbird sale-channel app repo where all this code is located? It would be so helpful to get a higher level view of the whole app. |

What is Marketplace Kit?
Marketplace Kit allows Shopify partners to build their own Marketplaces featuring billions of products from Shopify merchants. We announced Marketplace Kit in November 2021!
Why did we build Marketplace Kit?
Traditionally, Marketplaces pose a chicken-and-the-egg problem to our partners - finding buyers and finding supply. With Marketplace Kit (built on top of Shopify), you can access Shopify’s millions of merchants to supply your existing or budding Marketplace with billions of products.
Who is Marketplace Kit for?
Over the past few years, Shopify teams have partnered with some of the world’s largest platforms (Facebook, Google, TikTok, Pinterest, Spotify, etc) to help enable their commerce experiences and allow their buyers to shop from many merchants. Shopify has been the top contributor to these platforms’ marketplace experiences and with the launch of Marketplace Kit, we are helping to bring the tools trusted by these titans to the masses, making it easier for any development team to create a marketplace experience.
How do I start building with Marketplace Kit?
Documentation to get started with Marketplace Kit is available on shopify.dev/marketplaces! In the past, building marketplace experiences on top of Shopify were clumsy and left much up to the imagination of the builder. Now, we have guided, opinionated, step-by-step tutorials for building Marketplace experiences and embedding commerce into your platform. We have broken down both Buyer and Merchant experiences and what is explicitly required from you as a marketplace partner. Look for pre-built features to start your journey. Marketplace Kit is meant to give you the foundation for extending Shopify into your unique use cases.
Marketplace Kit is just the beginning of features we plan to support for our Marketplace partners. We are looking for feedback on our existing tutorials, as well as beta partners to test new and exciting features. Use this repo's discussions to get started!
We can’t wait to see what Marketplace experiences you will create!
