Upcoming Major Changes

[kinngh]

Hey everyone!

The repo isn't getting it's scheduled 2 weekly update (mostly packages.json) is due to the fact that the repo(s) are getting major updates to the structure and some working. This is still a series of independent changes that I've decided to incorporate as I see my workflow evolving.

1. New folder structure that will introduce app/ and extensions/ folder. This isn't going to mimic how the official boilerplates work, but based on my guide on how to add extensions to the repo.

2. MCP servers. As much as I don't like reliance on LLMs, MCP servers are increasingly helpful for GraphQL, Functions, Polaris Web Components and more, and adding a suggestion to add the MCP server is the right decision here. You can choose to ignore the suggestion.

3. Polaris Web Components. WC is the future and I want to migrate to using WC patterns instead of React. Yes, you can use them both side-by-side in the same project, but it's recommended to move over to WC.

There will be some other enhancements like supporting Declarative Data from shopify.app.toml, which in my repo(s) would work the same way as rest of the webhook features via utils/shopify.js

Yes, there will be migration guides available. No, none of these changes are influenced by any other person, and all changes to my repo(s) are purely scoped to how I build apps, not what's being suggested.

Great, really appreciate the transparency and thought process behind these structural updates.
The move towards Polaris WC and MCP integration sounds exciting and forward looking.
