About

Nacelle provides a composable commerce data layer that sits between a merchant's existing ecommerce backend — primarily Shopify Plus or Salesforce Commerce Cloud — and their custom front-end, synchronizing product catalog, inventory, content, and pricing data in real time to a high-performance API that front-end developers query directly. This architecture allows brands to build fully custom, high-performance storefronts using any front-end framework without being constrained by the templating limitations of Shopify themes or Salesforce's default presentation layer.
