Hello @NVT_DEV ,
It is possible to manually retrieve the Storefront API token by creating a Custom App and using it for the headless store. However, deploying to Shopify Oxygen is not possible, and you will need to use other alternative deployment platforms such as Vercel and Cloudflare. Please note that the starter plan has some limitations, such as the inability to use themes, pages, and blogs. To overcome these limitations, you may need to use third-party applications like Weaverse. If you need additional assistance, feel free to message me!

Note that the tutorial will require more than starter. I did it just to have all the nice env variables injected from oxygen on
