FAQ

What do I get when I purchase?

A .zip file containing the full .liquid snippet (200+ lines) and a detailed README.md with installation steps and customisation options.

Does this need an app?

No. It uses the browser's localStorage to track views and Shopify's product JSON endpoint to fetch data. Zero external dependencies.

Is the data private?

Yes. All data is stored locally in the customer's browser. Nothing is sent to any server. Clearing browser data removes the history.
