- 2How to design custom product cards without pluginsBuilding custom product cards and alignment grids without third-party plugins requires manually styling theme templates and adjusting CSS grid or flexbox rules. Relying on extra plugins often slows down store performance and limits layout flexibility, but doing it from scratch means handling responsive alignment and quick-view overlays using custom code.
