Techno
A theme for consumer tech and accessories. The storefront reads as a hardware terminal: bordered panels with a label and a status in the header strip, spaced‑out monospace details, and one accent color kept for prices and stock.
Coming to the Shopify Theme Store
One theme, four color palettes.
Pick one in Theme settings › Colors. Change any single color to make an exception, and clear it to follow the palette again.
Switch at any time
The palettes are one setting, not separate installs. Colors you’ve changed stay when you switch.
Checked for contrast
Every palette meets 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for control borders and icons. Borders are mixed from the palette, so they hold that line when you switch.
Effects, if you want them
Scanlines, a drafting‑grid overlay, a boot sequence and a blinking cursor. Each is optional, and all of them stop for visitors who ask for reduced motion.
Four ideas explain most of the theme.
-
A color palette sets the colors
“Color palette” writes all ten colors at once. Change a single color to make an exception.
-
Pages are stacks of sections
Every template is a list of sections. Some, like the product page, hold blocks you can reorder.
-
Real store data, not typed‑in copy
The spec table, product count, stock labels, free dispatch messages and search tabs read from what you already keep in Shopify.
-
Fast by default
No web font has to download, and adding to cart, the cart page, filters and search keep working with JavaScript turned off.
Compact where it counts.
The shop name shares one row with the header buttons, the status strip stays on one line, and the featured product reaches the first screen.
