Salla theme development.

Every Salla store starts from the same handful of marketplace themes, which is why so many of them look like each other. A Twilight theme built for your brand is the part of the store a shopper actually judges you on — and the part the settings panel can never take far enough.

What you get

  • A theme on the Twilight engine

    Built the way Salla intends themes to be built — Twig templates, theme settings your team can actually use, and a structure that survives a platform update instead of breaking on one.

  • Every template, not just the homepage

    Home, category, product, cart, checkout, search, blog and the empty and error states nobody designs until a customer hits one.

  • RTL as the default, not a mode

    Logical CSS properties, mirrored icons, Arabic numerals and typefaces chosen to read at small sizes — so the Arabic storefront is the one that was designed, not the one that was flipped.

  • A theme handed over, not held hostage

    You get the theme source, the build setup and notes on how it is put together. If you hire someone else next year, they can read it.

Common questions

The things people actually ask before hiring.

What is Twilight, and why does it matter?
Twilight is Salla's theme engine — the supported way to build a storefront rather than pasting custom code into the settings panel. Work done through it keeps receiving Salla's platform updates; work pasted around it usually stops surviving them.
Can you customise a theme I already bought?
Often, yes, and it is the cheaper route. The first step is reading what you have: some marketplace themes are clean enough to extend, and some have been customised so heavily that a fresh theme costs less than untangling them. You get that answer before you commit.
Will the theme still work after a Salla update?
That is the reason for building it on Twilight in the first place. The theme uses the platform's own template structure and hooks, so updates land underneath it rather than through it.
Do you design as well, or only build?
I build, and I build from a design. If you already have one, it gets implemented faithfully. If you don't, I will tell you plainly — a theme built without one tends to look like the template it was meant to replace.
