# Shopify Polaris

## 매 한 줄
> **"매 Polaris 는 Shopify 의 admin/merchant facing design system"**. React component lib + design guidelines + token (SCSS/CSS vars) 패키지. App Bridge 와 함께 매 Shopify embedded app 의 standard UI. 2026 기준 v13 — modular import + CSS vars + dark mode 지원, App Bridge React 4.x 와 통합.

## 매 핵심

### 매 패키지
- `@shopify/polaris`: React components + tokens
- `@shopify/app-bridge-react`: 매 embedded app 의 host iframe API
- `@shopify/polaris-icons`: SVG icon set

### 매 design principles
- "Built for Shopify" — merchant 가 Shopify Admin 에 익숙
- Workflow centric (page · card · resource list · index table)
- Accessibility first (WCAG 2.1 AA)

### 매 응용
1. Shopify Admin custom app (embedded).
2. Shopify storefront builder tools.
3. Internal merchant ops dashboards.

## 💻 패턴

### App provider + i18n
```tsx
import { AppProvider, Page, Card, Text } from "@shopify/polaris";
import "@shopify/polaris/build/esm/styles.css";
import enTranslations from "@shopify/polaris/locales/en.json";

export default function App() {
  return (
    <AppProvider i18n={enTranslations}>
      <Page title="Orders">
        <Card>
          <Text as="h2" variant="headingMd">매 orders here</Text>
        </Card>
      </Page>
    </AppProvider>
  );
}
```

### Embedded app with App Bridge
```tsx
// app/providers.tsx
"use client";
import { AppProvider } from "@shopify/polaris";
import { Provider as AppBridge } from "@shopify/app-bridge-react";
import enTranslations from "@shopify/polaris/locales/en.json";

export function Providers({
  children, apiKey, host,
}: { children: React.ReactNode; apiKey: string; host: string }) {
  return (
    <AppBridge config={{ apiKey, host, forceRedirect: true }}>
      <AppProvider i18n={enTranslations}>{children}</AppProvider>
    </AppBridge>
  );
}
```

### IndexTable (Shopify-style data grid)
```tsx
import { IndexTable, Text, useIndexResourceState } from "@shopify/polaris";

const orders = [
  { id: "1001", customer: "Alice", total: "$120" },
  { id: "1002", customer: "Bob", total: "$45" },
];

export function OrdersTable() {
  const { selectedResources, allResourcesSelected, handleSelectionChange } =
    useIndexResourceState(orders);

  return (
    <IndexTable
      resourceName={{ singular: "order", plural: "orders" }}
      itemCount={orders.length}
      selectedItemsCount={allResourcesSelected ? "All" : selectedResources.length}
      onSelectionChange={handleSelectionChange}
      headings={[{ title: "Order" }, { title: "Customer" }, { title: "Total" }]}
    >
      {orders.map((o, i) => (
        <IndexTable.Row id={o.id} key={o.id} position={i}
          selected={selectedResources.includes(o.id)}>
          <IndexTable.Cell><Text as="span" fontWeight="bold">#{o.id}</Text></IndexTable.Cell>
          <IndexTable.Cell>{o.customer}</IndexTable.Cell>
          <IndexTable.Cell>{o.total}</IndexTable.Cell>
        </IndexTable.Row>
      ))}
    </IndexTable>
  );
}
```

### Form + Banner + Toast
```tsx
import { Form, FormLayout, TextField, Button, Banner, Frame, Toast } from "@shopify/polaris";
import { useState, useCallback } from "react";

export function ProductForm() {
  const [name, setName] = useState("");
  const [error, setError] = useState<string>();
  const [toast, setToast] = useState(false);

  const submit = useCallback(async () => {
    if (!name.trim()) { setError("매 name required"); return; }
    setError(undefined);
    // await api.create({ name });
    setToast(true);
  }, [name]);

  return (
    <Frame>
      {error && <Banner tone="critical">{error}</Banner>}
      <Form onSubmit={submit}>
        <FormLayout>
          <TextField label="Product name" value={name} onChange={setName} autoComplete="off" />
          <Button submit variant="primary">매 Save</Button>
        </FormLayout>
      </Form>
      {toast && <Toast content="매 Saved" onDismiss={() => setToast(false)} />}
    </Frame>
  );
}
```

### Resource picker via App Bridge
```tsx
"use client";
import { useAppBridge } from "@shopify/app-bridge-react";
import { Button } from "@shopify/polaris";

export function PickProduct() {
  const shopify = useAppBridge();

  async function open() {
    const selected = await shopify.resourcePicker({ type: "product", multiple: true });
    if (selected) console.log("picked", selected);
  }

  return <Button onClick={open}>매 Choose products</Button>;
}
```

### Navigation
```tsx
import { Frame, Navigation } from "@shopify/polaris";
import { HomeIcon, OrderIcon, ProductIcon } from "@shopify/polaris-icons";

export function Shell({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
  const nav = (
    <Navigation location="/">
      <Navigation.Section
        items={[
          { url: "/", label: "Home", icon: HomeIcon },
          { url: "/orders", label: "Orders", icon: OrderIcon, badge: "12" },
          { url: "/products", label: "Products", icon: ProductIcon },
        ]}
      />
    </Navigation>
  );
  return <Frame navigation={nav}>{children}</Frame>;
}
```

### Polaris tokens in custom CSS
```css
.custom-card {
  background: var(--p-color-bg-surface);
  color: var(--p-color-text);
  padding: var(--p-space-400);
  border-radius: var(--p-border-radius-200);
}
```

### Server Action with Polaris UI feedback
```tsx
"use client";
import { Button, Toast, Frame } from "@shopify/polaris";
import { useState, useTransition } from "react";
import { syncProducts } from "./actions";

export function SyncButton() {
  const [pending, start] = useTransition();
  const [done, setDone] = useState(false);

  return (
    <Frame>
      <Button
        loading={pending}
        onClick={() => start(async () => { await syncProducts(); setDone(true); })}
      >매 Sync</Button>
      {done && <Toast content="매 Synced" onDismiss={() => setDone(false)} />}
    </Frame>
  );
}
```

## 매 결정 기준
| 상황 | Approach |
|---|---|
| Shopify embedded app | **Polaris + App Bridge** |
| Public storefront | Hydrogen (다른 stack) |
| Non-Shopify admin | shadcn/ui or other DS |
| Shopify ecosystem reuse | Polaris (familiarity) |

**기본값**: Shopify embedded app → Polaris v13 + App Bridge React 4.x. Storefront 는 Hydrogen.

## 🔗 Graph
- 부모: [[Design System]]
- 변형: [[shadcn/ui]]

## 🤖 LLM 활용
**언제**: Shopify embedded app scaffold, Shopify admin tooling, merchant-facing UX.
**언제 X**: Non-Shopify product (merchant-context UX 가 어색), 매 storefront (Hydrogen).

## ❌ 안티패턴
- **Polaris outside Shopify**: 매 brand bleed — non-Shopify product 에 Polaris UI.
- **Skipping AppProvider**: i18n / theme 깨짐.
- **Custom UI for embedded**: 매 merchant 혼동 — Polaris 우선.
- **Forgetting App Bridge**: embedded app 에서 navigation/resource picker 못함.
- **Bypassing tokens**: hex code 직접 → dark mode 깨짐.

## 🧪 검증 / 중복
- Verified (polaris.shopify.com docs, App Bridge React docs, 2026).
- 신뢰도 A.
