Shopify Webhook Simulator

Spinning up a dev store and tunneling ngrok just to see one webhook body is a tax on every Shopify app developer. Skip it: these templates mirror the orders/create and refunds/create topics — line items, money fields as strings (yes, Shopify sends "42.00"), customer objects, and the X-Shopify-Topic headers your router switches on.

Everything above is encoded into the #data= fragment of the exported URL — deflated and base64url-packed by your browser. Fragments are never sent to any server, so this mock is shareable and private. Paste the URL anywhere: a teammate's browser decodes it identically.
