Shopify app authentication and authorization with my own backend and static remix app

Shopify Apps
1

Hello,
I am new to shopify app development guys so i don’t know much but currently i am in situation where am need build a shopify connection to my platform(cash-register) and i have two things:

  • backend service as per my platforms requirement
  • shopify app(remix) fully static with only ui no backend logic

Everything related shopify is in my backend (Authentication with Code Grant Flow, Authorization middleware) and i am not using remix app at all only to show instruction on how to use it from my platform.

Am i doing this wrong way?
What are you suggestions.

Thank you!

Hi @user4679

You’re not doing it wrong — having a fully backend-powered Shopify integration with a static Remix app just for UI/instructions is fine. Many developers handle all OAuth, API calls, and logic server-side and use the frontend only for display. Just ensure your backend securely manages tokens and scopes, and the frontend stays lightweight.

That’s great,
I am not exposing token to browser and using it for my backend then it’s fine right?
And thank you very much for reply!
