Hydrogen developer preview update: July 30, 2026
The Hydrogen developer preview adds new capabilities to the toolkit and extends the ways developers can build Shopify storefronts:
- Vue bindings: Build your storefront in Vue with the same Hydrogen APIs you know from React, through the new
@shopify/hydrogen/vueentrypoint. - GraphQL TypeScript tooling: Query autocomplete and type checking for both Shopify APIs now ship with the package.
- Analytics and consent through ShopifyScripts: Storefront analytics and consent management now set up with the rest of your Shopify scripts, including support for Shopify's privacy banner.
- Shopify Inbox support: Shoppers can chat with your store's AI agent and get handed off to your staff, right from your Hydrogen storefront.
- Suspense cart reads in React: The cart can stream in after the page renders, so your app shell stays fast and cacheable.
To get started, visit the Hydrogen developer preview documentation. For a detailed breakdown of this release, read the full release notes.
