I followed your repo but still have some questions, do you think there is any change of hoping on a call with you to make some questions?
Thanks
Topic summary
Developers are encountering difficulties deploying Shopify Remix apps to Cloudflare Workers and Vercel, primarily receiving Error forwarding web request: AggregateError when following existing tutorials. The main challenge stems from incompatibility between Shopify’s Vite-based template and older deployment guides.
Key Solutions Identified:
-
Cloudflare deployment: One user successfully created a working template using D1 database with automated CI/CD deployment via GitHub (gruntlord6’s repo). Another tutorial covers adapting the official Shopify Remix template for Cloudflare Workers.
-
Vercel deployment: Requires disabling “Vercel Authentication” in deployment protection settings to prevent 401 errors from iframe requests. Database location and message file bundling (using dynamic imports instead of file system reads) also need special handling.
Development Workflow Limitation:
A significant constraint is the inability to use Shopify’s live preview tunneling (shopify app dev) with cloud deployments. The recommended workaround is maintaining a separate “appname-dev” deployment for testing changes before pushing to production, relying on Git-based CI/CD rather than local hot-reload development within the Shopify admin panel.
