Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
Using Shopify's multi-locations feature, and importing products in bulk? Use this task to automatically connect each new product to every location for your store.
Runs Occurs whenever a product is created. Configuration includes track inventory using shopify and allow orders for out of stock products.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Shopifolks, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
(By the way, have you seen our documentation? Have you joined the Slack community?)
