I want to know if it’s possible possible to make a website similar to this with shopify without any coding knowledge. I was searching about tutorials on youtube but they are all very simple and copy paste of each others, couldn’t find any in depth tutorial so I would be happy if someone can answer this for me. Thanks
Topic summary
A user asks whether they can build a website similar to a reference example (Vegicart demo store) using Shopify without coding skills, noting that YouTube tutorials are too basic and repetitive.
Community responses suggest:
- Using paid Shopify themes that cover most desired features
- Leveraging page builder apps like PageFly, Shogun, or GemPages for advanced customization without code
- Exploring Shopify’s theme store for similar designs, including the Dawn theme combined with apps like EasyDisplay
- Utilizing Shopify’s drag-and-drop Theme Editor for basic customization
Key considerations raised:
- Some tweaks will likely require coding knowledge (Liquid, CSS, JavaScript) depending on specific requirements
- One respondent questions whether learning to code or spending time on DIY customization is more efficient than purchasing a $29 theme
Current status: The original poster acknowledges the suggestions are close but not exact matches, expressing concern about implementing changes and fixing bugs without understanding the underlying code. The discussion remains open with no definitive solution reached.
Hello, Can you share the reference store main url so that I can check it out.
It is possible if you use a paid theme which probably covers all aspects of this. Then there are apps in Shopify for a lot of stuffs that you can add without code.
But honestly when it comes to Shopify, there are some tweaks that would need coding depending on your requirements, it doesn’t have to major changes which can also be left untouched.
And also you can use page builders in Shopify like pagefly or gem pages, etc for better customizations without code.
Hi @Yomismo
Actually, Shopify has a variety of premium and free themes that allow you to create a sleek, high-quality site with just drag-and-drop tools using Shopify’s Theme Editor. If you need advanced customization, apps like PageFly or Shogun let you design more complex layouts without coding.

You can check shopify theme store you will find many themes which helps you to find many themes like this site . You can use dawn theme and use shopify app like easydisplay to popular your product , collections, how this theme showed.
Hi @Yomismo
I think it is not possible to create a store like that without any coding knowledge. You could try to get colors and fonts from that theme, button radius and set all that in some free them like Dawn but it will miss some features for sure. You would need basics in Shopify Liquid, but more about CSS and JavaScript a bit. It is a good skill to have, but I wonder if time spent creating it on your own would be better than just spend $29 on theme you want ?
That’s close to what I wanted, but not quite, so it would likely not be easy to implement changes or maybe not even possible for me if the features were made using code instead of the easy drag and drop shopify features, also would most definitely run into bugs and issues that would not be easy to fix myself since I don’t know how it was built.
