Quickstart
You'll have a working storefront in about five minutes. By the end of this page you'll have:
- Signed up for a Storlaunch workspace.
- Created a storefront.
- Added one product to the catalog.
- Placed a test order through the public checkout.
If you'd rather read about concepts first, jump to Concepts. If you'd rather install an SDK first, see Installation.
Prerequisites
You'll need:
- A working email address — we use Huudis SSO for sign-in, and verifying an email is part of sign-up.
- About five minutes.
- A browser. The Quickstart is entirely portal-driven; you can do everything from the API later.
You do not need to connect a real payment provider or a real courier for this Quickstart. Storlaunch provisions a Plugipay test workspace automatically so checkout simulates payment without moving real money.
1. Sign up
Head to storlaunch.forjio.com and click Get started. We use Huudis as our identity provider — you'll create one Huudis account and use it across every Forjio product (Storlaunch, Plugipay, Fulkruma, LinkSnap, and the rest).
Sign-up takes two clicks:
- Enter your email and choose a password.
- Click the verification link we send you.
If you'd rather sign up with Google or Apple, those buttons appear on the sign-up screen too — they're only shown when the corresponding provider is configured on the Huudis instance.
Once you're verified, you land in your first workspace's dashboard.
Workspaces are how Storlaunch isolates data. You get one workspace by default, and each workspace owns its own storefronts, products, orders, API keys, and webhooks.
2. Create a storefront
Onboarding drops you on the Storefront page (or you can find it later under Settings → Storefront). A storefront in Storlaunch is the public-facing shop — its name, domain, theme, currency, and policies.
You'll set three things:
- Store name — what buyers see in the browser tab and on receipts.
- Subdomain — your storefront URL on the Storlaunch platform:
your-shop.storlaunch.forjio.com. You can attach a custom domain later from Settings → Domains. - Currency — defaults to IDR. Used as the display currency on every product unless overridden per-variant.
Click Save. The storefront goes live at the subdomain you chose — with zero products, but live.
3. Add a product
Navigate to Products → New product. The form has three required fields:
- Name — what buyers see in product cards and on the checkout.
- Price — in the storefront's currency. Storlaunch stores all prices in the smallest unit (rupiah, sen), so
IDR 50,000is entered as50000. - Type —
physical(ships) ordigital(delivered as a link or license key).
For this Quickstart, pick digital so we can skip shipping setup.
Optional but useful:
- Description — markdown, rendered on the product page.
- Cover image — first thing buyers see.
- Thumbnail — the card image in listings.
Click Publish. The product appears on your storefront at your-shop.storlaunch.forjio.com/products/<slug>.
Don't have an image handy? Skip it for now. Storlaunch renders a typographic placeholder so the product is shoppable immediately.
4. Place a test order
Open the public storefront URL in a private browsing window (so you're not logged in as the merchant). You should see the storefront landing page with your one product on it.
- Click the product card → Add to cart → Checkout.
- Storlaunch hands the buyer off to Plugipay's hosted checkout. You're in test mode, so the page shows a simulated payment method picker.
- Pick any test method — Plugipay simulates approval and redirects back to your storefront's success page.
- Storlaunch creates the order, sends the receipt email, and (for digital products) generates a delivery link.
Switch back to the merchant dashboard and open Orders. The test order is right at the top with status paid and fulfilled.
That's the loop: product → storefront → cart → checkout → payment → order → fulfilment. Every other feature in Storlaunch is something layered onto this core.
What just happened
A few things you didn't have to set up but used anyway:
- A Plugipay workspace was auto-provisioned on first storefront creation. Storlaunch acts as a Plugipay partner and routes checkout through it. You can see the linked Plugipay workspace under Settings → Payments.
- A Fulkruma workspace was auto-provisioned too, but unused so far — digital products don't need fulfilment. The first physical product order will route through it.
- A buyer customer record was created from the email on the test order. It's now in Customers in the dashboard.
- A receipt email was sent to the buyer (with a test-mode banner so they know it's not real).
Next
- Installation — install the SDK to drive Storlaunch from your code.
- Concepts — the data model the rest of the docs assume.
- Portal → Storefront — configure themes, policies, custom domain.
- Portal → Products — variants, inventory, digital files, bulk import.
