Stop paying a $150/hr Magento specialist for tweaks that live in app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/. SimpleReview knows M2 module XML, layout XML, and the di.xml dependency injection — and opens a PR you can merge.
app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml, page-specific layoutstemplates/html/footer.phtml, product page tmpli18n/en_US.csv (theme-level)web/css/source/, _module.lessdi.xml plugins (interceptors) — for read-only views, not for payment logicWorks with Magento 2.4.x, Adobe Commerce 2.4.x. Hyvä themes — works (Twig-aware). PWA Studio — limited (separate frontend). Magento 1 — NOT supported (different architecture).
Auto-detects M2 from <meta name="generator" content="Magento 2.4..."> and the Mage.Cookies JS handle exposed on every storefront.
Full M2 codebase via composer install already in your repo. SimpleReview reads app/code/ + app/design/frontend/ + theme inheritance to know which override wins.
Banner, footer, product card, cart drawer. SimpleReview captures DOM + the .phtml file path + the layout XML reference that mounted it.
SimpleReview knows you'll need bin/magento setup:upgrade && bin/magento cache:clean for layout changes. The PR description tells your CI/deploy pipeline which commands to run after merge.
