Extension only app

I’m new to Shopify and developing a custom extension-only app to display the delivery date on the order status page. I’ve installed it on a development store and now want to install it on a production store.

  1. How do I install it on the production store?**
  2. How does hosting work on Shopify?**
  3. If my partner account is disabled, will my custom extension-only app still work if Shopify is hosting it?

Thanks in advance!

  1. Find the “Choose Distribution” button on the app page in your partner dashboard. Pick Custom distribution to get an install link. You can use this link to install it on the merchant store.
  2. There isn’t any hosting setup involved. You just install your app on the client store and run shopify app deploy when your extension is ready. That pushes the extension to shopify and you can go ahead and add it from the checkout editor.
  3. Not sure about this honestly.

What Taksh said is correct for 1 and 2.

To answer 3

Unfortuantely it will not. Since you won’t be able to push new version or authenticate to your app.
