Step 2. Create a new CLI app, and here select all the node names.
Step 3. Go with the command yarn generate extension, checkout yes new app on Shopify. Select Checkout UI as an extension type. Select a default name, then select JavaScript React to work on it.
Step 4. Open the extension on VSCode. For that, click on Open folder, select commercial-revenue-app, and click Open.
Step 5. Go back to the JavaScript and start running the app. You will get the web console that Shopify provides. Set the store name as “test with sample data” and wait for some time.

Step 10. Go to commercial-revenue-app and click on the app. Then stop running, deploy it to the partner’s app, and deploy it to push changes.
