How to set up a color selection for a starter kit?

Topic summary

Main goal: set up a starter kit product where customers select two colors (with images) and inventory is immediately deducted from the same SKUs that are also sold individually.

  • The requester shared three reference product pages showing the desired flow and visuals.
  • They initially looked for an app or settings to achieve this but couldn’t find a suitable option.

Key finding: a responder checked the reference sites and stated the functionality is “hardcoded” (custom-coded in the theme) rather than implemented via a Shopify app.

Recommendation: implement via custom development instead of relying on an app.

Outcome: the requester asked for help; the responder offered development services. They arranged to continue via direct inbox contact (details in responder’s signature).

Status: moving to a private, custom-coding solution. No app-based solution was identified in the thread; no technical implementation details or code were shared publicly. Open for others seeking an app alternative, but none provided here.

Hi all,

I want to create a starter kit like this:
https://maniac-nails.com/nl/products/startersbox#
and
https://geelihouse.com/products/offre-pack-decouverte
and
https://www.maenails.nl/collections/assortiment-collectie-drop-1-2022/products/the-set

It is important that customers can choose 2 colors and see a photo of it.

The colors must be taken from stock immediately, because they are also sold separately in the webshop.

I’m having trouble finding the right app/settings to do thisto make.

Yes I want to receive same as given ref website

Hello @Iris10

Welcome to Shopify Community

I have checked all the three reference sites and the functionality is not setup using App. It is hardcoded.

If you need to setup this in your store, You need to hire a developer to custom code the whole in your site.

Let me know if you are looking for.

Thanks
