eCommerce (Odoo)

10 days to a brand-aligned launch for Bitcoin 2026

Final-mile delivery on a hard public deadline

Snorkel makes cedar hot tubs and the HashTub, a cedar hot tub heated by a water-cooled Bitcoin miner. Snorkel had spent nearly a year migrating from WordPress and WooCommerce to Odoo, with the storefront still catching up to the new brand. The deadline that finally couldn't move: Michael Diederich's debut of the HashTub at Bitcoin 2026 in Las Vegas.

ShakaCode took over the in-flight Odoo build and shipped days before the conference, cutting customizer page weight and hitting top accessibility scores.

I had no idea how much it was going to improve. Now it's super slick. I don't know what wizardry and magic you put into that, but that was a big impact for me.

Building high-impact eCommerce websites

Printivity is the fastest growing digital print company in the USA. Previously known as MGX Copy, rebranding and slow backend processes required a new website supporting a mobile-friendly UI, SEO capabilities, and a faster and cheaper way to launch new print products.

Facing a limited budget and a hard launch date, ShakaCode leveraged reusable IP to build the entire e-commerce site on an aggressive timeline.

Founded as a pop-up dedicated to creating innovative and memorable coffee experiences, Go Get Em Tiger (GGET) is a chain of bar-style, “community coffee” shops in Los Angeles, California.
