Multilanguage and Multicurrency
<!-- This is an example of automatic currency switching based on IP as well as language selection using Langify and redirects.
All domains should be set up in Langify with their appropriate languages. I'd recommend placing this code in its own snippet
and including it near the </body> tag in your theme.liquid
Dependencies:
- currencies.js (https://github.com/carolineschnapp/currencies)
- Langify (https://apps.shopify.com/langify)
- A Shopify Store (well, should work anywhere, but only tested on Shopify)
