# Storefront UX toggles (/docs/features/storefront-ux)



Two lightweight storefront toggles, both runtime flags in `/admin/features`, both default-off, and both gated to ecommerce mode.

## Welcome guide (`welcomeGuide`) [#welcome-guide-welcomeguide]

A first-visit welcome modal that orients new shoppers (and shows off the shop). Shown once per visitor; off by default so it never surprises an existing storefront.

## Announcement bar (`announcementBar`) [#announcement-bar-announcementbar]

A dismissible promo banner pinned to the top of the storefront — free-shipping thresholds, sales, launch messaging. Content is editable; off by default.

| Flag              | Tier    | Default | Precondition |
| ----------------- | ------- | ------- | ------------ |
| `welcomeGuide`    | runtime | off     | ecommerce    |
| `announcementBar` | runtime | off     | ecommerce    |

With both off, the storefront header is byte-identical to a fresh shop.
