Polaris is the set of building blocks that Shopify apps use to build their screens, such as buttons, forms, and menus. Polaris Web Components 2.0 is now stable and available to developers. It is the first major release under the new versioning model for the service that delivers it, and it matches the redesigned Shopify admin, which has a new frame, new navigation, and a new look.
What it means for your store
Nothing changes for you today. Polaris 2.0 does not reach apps automatically. Each app's developer has to switch to the new version, so the screens you use will match the redesigned admin only as those apps are updated. Some apps may look or behave differently after their update, and the developer may need to adjust how the app is built. Apps that stay on the older version keep working as they do now.
What to do this week
- Nothing yet. No action is needed from you.
- If an app you rely on looks off after an update, contact that app's support team and mention the change to its interface.
