Welcome to the first of our new 20 part Hyvä Fridays series! Each week we’ll be going in-depth on everything you need to know about Hyvä Themes for Magento 2. Whether you’re a store owner or a developer we’ll cover installation and performance benefits, customisation and real world success stories.

As a Hyvä Silver Partner in the UK, Envisage Digital are here to help you get the most out of this amazing theme. Let’s start with the basics – what are Hyvä Themes and why are they a game changer for Magento 2 stores?

What are Hyvä Themes?

If you have a Magento 2 store you’ll have experienced some of the problems that come with slow load times and bloated themes. That’s where Hyvä Themes come in – a modern, lightweight and highly optimised alternative to traditional Magento 2 themes.

Hyvä Themes are built from the ground up with performance in mind. They focus on:

Speed: Hyvä is much lighter than traditional Magento themes like Luma
Simplicity: Hyvä uses less JavaScript and Tailwind CSS which makes customisation easier and the codebase cleaner.
User Experience: Faster page loads = better user experience = customers stay on your site = more sales.

Hyvä Themes Benefits

Hyvä offers many advantages for merchants and developers:

Faster loading times: Reduced page load times mean better Core Web Vitals and SEO
Developer friendly: Hyvä is easier to work with, reduces development complexity and speeds up project timelines
Customisable: With Tailwind CSS developers can create custom designs that look great and perform well
Less JavaScript: By removing the heavy reliance on JavaScript Hyvä reduces load times and frontend bloat

In short, Hyvä makes it easier to build high performance Magento stores for both developers and customers.

Why Does Hyvä Matter for Your Business?

Speed is key in today’s eCommerce world. If your site loads slow you’ll lose customers – it’s that simple. But with Hyvä your store will:

Load faster: Hyvä Themes are built for speed which means more conversions
Rank higher on Google: Google rewards fast sites with better SEO rankings especially when they perform well on Core Web Vitals
Improve user satisfaction: Customers stay longer on fast loading sites which means more engagement and potentially more sales

For Magento store owners Hyvä is not just about performance – it’s about being competitive.
