Requires Apptrian Subcategories Grid/List GraphQL v1.0.0 or newer.

Provides Apptrian Subcategories Grid/List extension functionality to PWA Studio. Requires both original (base) extension and GraphQL (add-on) extension to be installed. Allows you to have subcategories in the form of a grid or list on category pages, the home page, or optionally any other page via Page Builder. Additionally, there are more than several options for customization. The subcategories block is Responsive Web Design (RWD) ready. It will recalculate itself based on the parent.

On category pages, the extension will show children categories of the current category. On CMS pages, the extension will show top-level categories or any other categories you want by using the "Category IDs" option, where you type a comma-separated list of category IDs you want to show. You can also show subcategories by typing markup tags and using Page Builder inside the CMS page content or CMS blocks.

Compatible with PWA Studio (Venia) frontend without the need for any additional coding. It works out of the box.
