# BrightPath Creative

[BrightPath Creative](https://ebooks-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a digital-products catalog before a real Shopify store is ready. It includes e-books, document templates, planners, and video resources for creative freelancers. The catalog has 30 products across 4 collections. Every product has one default variant, no product requires shipping, and 9 products have a compare-at price.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose BrightPath Creative when the storefront sells downloadable products and should not ask shoppers for shipping choices.

Use BrightPath Creative for:

- Digital-product, e-book, template, or course-style storefronts
- Product pages, carts, and checkout flows that skip shipping for downloadable goods
- Collection browsing and compare-at price display for a compact catalog

Choose another mock.shop store if you need physical shipping, size or color selectors, subscriptions, appointments, or a large catalog. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example BrightPath Creative query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves product pricing and shipping requirements from <https://ebooks-digital.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://ebooks-digital.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ products(first: 3) { nodes { title variants(first: 1) { nodes { price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale requiresShipping } } } } }"}'
```

This query returns product titles, availability, current prices, compare-at prices, and whether each variant requires shipping. Adapt the query for your storefront needs.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://ebooks-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

The catalog’s digital products let an agent test storefront behavior for goods that are delivered without shipping. Because every product has one default variant and `requiresShipping` is false, the store supports testing product pages without option selectors, carts that skip shipping for downloadable products, sale badges, and struck-through compare-at prices.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://ebooks-digital.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a digital-products storefront with BrightPath Creative using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using ebooks-digital.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: ebooks-digital.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=ebooks-digital.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use BrightPath Creative’s catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
