Aqua Templating

LaunchMyStore uses Aqua template language. It’s designed for building dynamic, customizable themes.
LaunchMyStore is 100% Liquid compatible. Shopify themes work seamlessly with zero modifications.

​
What is Aqua?

Aqua is a safe, customer-facing template language with three main constructs:

Objects

Output dynamic content with double curly braces: {{ product.title }}

Tags

Logic and control flow: {% if %}, {% for %}, {% assign %}

Filters

Transform output with pipes: {{ price | money }}

​
Quick Example

<div class="product-card">
  <img src="{{ product.featured_image | img_url: '400x' }}" alt="{{ product.title }}">
  <h2>{{ product.title }}</h2>
  <p class="price">{{ product.price | money }}</p>
  
  {% if product.compare_at_price > product.price %}
    <span class="sale-badge">Sale</span>
    <s>{{ product.compare_at_price | money }}</s>
  {% endif %}
  
  {% if product.available %}
    <button>Add to Cart</button>
  {% else %}
    <button disabled>Sold Out</button>
  {% endif %}
</div>

​
Whitespace Control

Use hyphens to strip whitespace: 
{%- assign name = "value" -%}
{{- product.title -}}
  • {%- strips whitespace before
  • -%} strips whitespace after
  • {{- and -}} work the same for outputs

​
Comments

{% comment %}
  This won't appear in the output
{% endcomment %}
