Shopify and Vercel are rebuilding Hydrogen, Shopify's framework for headless storefronts, as an open-source and runtime-agnostic version that works with any JavaScript framework. The new Hydrogen aims to reduce feature development time from months to a week for retailers like Paige.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://vercel.com/blog/shopify-and-vercel-are-rebuilding-hydrogen-for-faster-storefronts:

> The new version is open source and runtime agnostic so developers can build with Next.js, Nuxt, Svelte, or any framework they choose.
