Adding ajax to the Shopify cart template (theme development tutorial)

In this video, Robbie is going to cover the Shopify cart page in depth. He will be showing us how to ajaxify the page so that everything updates on screen and there's no need for an update button.

Steps:

1. Hooking up quantity selectors: Robbie starts by adding an event listener on each of the quantity selector buttons. He then checks if the user is trying to increase or decrease the quantity and updates the value accordingly.

2. Updating the cart: Next, Robbie creates a function called change item quantity and passes it the key and quantity. He then fires off an AJAX request to Shopify's cart change API and updates the cart with the new quantity.

3. Updating prices: Robbie then grabs the total discount, total price, and item price from the updated cart object and formats them properly using Shopify's money format. He then updates the elements on screen with the new prices.

4. Removing items: Robbie adds a class to the remove buttons and adds an event listener on each of them. He then creates a function that removes the item from the cart and updates the total discount and total price.

5. Empty cart: Lastly, Robbie checks if the cart is completely empty and removes everything from the page while displaying an empty message.

By following Robbie's tutorial, we can learn how to ajaxify the Shopify cart page and make it more user-friendly. We can update the cart, prices, and remove items without refreshing the page. With these tips, we can improve the shopping experience for our customers and increase sales.

22 - Shopify Ajax Add To Cart with Fetch API and Alpine.js

In this video, we will learn how to add products to the cart using AJAX without jQuery. We will be using the default fetch API in the browser and Alpine JS, making it easy and clean to add products. We will begin by creating a function to call when we click on the add to cart button. We will change the button type from submit to button and add an event to call the function. To send data as an AJAX request, we can either create an object or serialize the form. We will serialize the form using the new form method and a unique key. We will then send a fetch request to Shopify and pass the form data in the body. If the response is successful, we will return the JSON object. In the next video, we will refactor the code, connect the quantity modifier, and fix any issues. Overall, this video provides a comprehensive guide on how to add products to the cart using AJAX without jQuery.
