Application Proxies: The New Hotness - Shopify

What this post added

Introduced Application Proxies, a new API feature allowing external applications to serve dynamic content within Shopify shop pages. This feature enables rendering external content through Shopify's Liquid template engine by setting the 'application/liquid' content-type, facilitating the creation of native-feeling pages without iframes. The post details the setup process, including controller and template implementation, and demonstrates fetching and displaying shop-specific data (e.g., total earnings, top-selling products) by making API calls to Shopify. Security is addressed by implementing request signature verification, similar to webhooks.
