From f5fcd73d34a2fa6c195bf7f08799a05ade778a73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Borowski Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2016 11:41:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Note added to README.md Added note informing people that this tool is deprecated and they should move to https://github.com/Shopify/themekit. Since people are still asking about this tool and reporting bugs on blog post comments, in the forums, etc. I think they should be pointed to the recommended theme development tool. --- README.md | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index a45a97a..727b32c 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -2,6 +2,10 @@ # Edit Your Shopify Theme Locally [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/shopify_theme.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/shopify_theme) +## Important Note + +This Shopify Theme ruby gem is not being actively developed anymore. Please head over to [https://github.com/Shopify/themekit](https://github.com/Shopify/themekit) for the recommended and actively developed Shopify theme development tool. + ![Shopify theme gem](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/669627/terminalreadme.png) The Shopify theme gem is a command line tool that allows you to manage and edit theme files directly on your computer. This allows you to use your preferred code editing software opposed to the built in code editor available in the “Edit HTML/CSS” page of your store. Files can be manually or automatically uploaded, downloaded, and synced. Depending on how you develop themes and your personal preference, this can allow for a more enjoyable and streamlined workflow. If the command line is scary for you, check out the [Desktop Theme Editor app](http://apps.shopify.com/desktop-theme-editor).
