The Shopify Platform
Soon after the launch, Lake left the company and Cody Fauser, a Computer Engineer, joined Shopify as CTO while Daniel Weinand, a freelance web designer for private and corporate clients , joined as the chief design officer. The focus of the new team was to perfect their product.
In 2006, Shopify was formally launched as a tool that sellers could use to build their own online stores. The product was very basic and included essential features to run an online store. It was the first product of its kind where sellers could design their own online stores..
