Delete All Customers - Shopify App

A Shopify app for safely deleting all customers with progress tracking and App Store compliance.

Project Overview

A Shopify app that allows merchants to safely delete all customers from their store with confirmation and progress tracking. Built with Remix, Shopify App Bridge 2.0+, and optimized for Shopify App Store submission with Core Web Vitals compliance. Features real-time deletion progress, comprehensive error handling, and meets all Shopify App Store technical and design requirements.

The Challenge

Shopify merchants needed a safe and efficient way to delete all customers from their stores, especially during testing or store resets.

Created comprehensive error handling, confirmation workflows, and performance testing suite for App Store compliance.
