Electro
A free Shopify theme for computing, audio and peripherals stores — anywhere the brand, the specification and the rating decide the sale.
It is built on Shopify's current theme architecture — Online Store 2.0 with theme blocks — so every template, including the product page, can be rearranged in the theme editor without touching Liquid.

What makes it an electronics theme
Nobody buys a laptop from a photograph. They compare three of them across six numbers, work out what the numbers mean, and then decide. Every general-purpose free theme leaves you to improvise that in the product description.
- The specification table is a real block, driven by a product metafield, so each product carries its own rows without you rebuilding anything. It renders nothing at all when a product has none, rather than an empty shell.
- The brand is Shopify's vendor field, shown above every title and matched by predictive search, because people shop by manufacturer as much as by model.
- Ratings show their count, because for hardware a four-and-a-half from four hundred people does more work than any photograph.
- Filtering includes brand and finish, not just category and price.
What it is technically
- 19 JSON templates, 40 sections, 15 theme blocks, 18 snippets.
- Two asset files:
base.cssandtheme.js. No build step, no Sass, no minification — what you see in Shopify's code editor is what runs. - No jQuery, no CSS framework, no third-party CDN request. Carousels are CSS
scroll-snap and drawers are the browser's own

Where to start
Getting started covers uploading the zip and setting up the specification table, which is the one thing worth doing before you publish.
