It keeps working unchanged until you migrate. Migration creates a new site project from the
bento template and carries over the name, colours, logo, hero and links. Details: Migration.Can I upload my own website?
Can I upload my own website?

itemshop deploy. It can be a Vite + React project or plain HTML/CSS/JS. See Custom code and CLI.Can my website have a backend?
Can my website have a backend?
No. ItemShop hosts only the static build output — none of your code runs on the server. Your site fetches data (products, checkout, order status, widgets) in the browser from the public Storefront API, with no secrets. On custom sites, redeem a voucher with
sf.vouchers.redeem(code, nick).Are the templates open source?

For developers
Which SDKs are available?
Which SDKs are available?
TypeScript (the reference one: Node, browser, React and CLI), Python, PHP, Java/Kotlin and Go. Each has a keyless part (Storefront) and a client that uses an API key. The SDKs ship with ItemShop 3.0 — until then plain HTTP works. Start with the TypeScript SDK or API with a key.

Do I need a registered business to accept payments?
