Work on multiple stores using shopify-cli at the same time

[devsmit]

I am using shopify-cli for last few months now.

I'm looking for workaround to modify themes from 2 or more stores at the same time. Right now I use shopify switch command to switch between different stores.

With themekit I used to fire up new terminal from each project that had config.yml with all details. It was quick and I never had to worry about switching between stores.

My question is - is there any way we can work on different stores at the same time without need to switch store -using shopify-cli ?

As far as I know this is not possible with shopify-cli, which is a huge pain. It basically degrades shopify-cli for small projects with a single shop only and themkit still stays the to-go solution for projects with multiple stores.

There's a trick using an environment file in the root of your template folder. 

shopify.theme.toml
[environments.storename]
store = "storename"

Then shopify theme pull -e storename
