Layers

Layers gives Shopify Plus merchants everything they need to power lightning-fast search, visual discovery, and intelligent merchandising—without the price tag or complexity of industry leading alternatives.

Overview

Understand how Layers' platform components work together in a hierarchical system to deliver powerful search and merchandising capabilities.
