Description

We are using the buy button on our website and using shopify's own shop page as the shopping part of the application. One issue that we've noticed is that after adding some items to the cart (via the buy button) if a user navigates to the "shopify shop" page then the cart is empty (or not in sync).

Which such a behavior is understandable as both applications are in separate domains, i'm curious if it is possible or if someone has tried to sync the cart state between one application and the shopify shop page.
