Theme Compatibility

Vintage themes 

Vintage themes are legacy liquid only themes that do not support sections or app blocks. Shopify is discontinuing this type of theme and as of the 1st of January 2024 will remove access to the Assets API. This means that applications will no longer be able to update or install local files that they need to support vintage themes.

OS2 themes 

The future. OS2 themes use app and section blocks to cleanly manage the implementation of app code into a theme. This removes any need for code changes by the store owner and ensures app removal includes all 'ghost' code.  As implementation and management happens via the Theme customisation menu in real time - this allows for greater and easier customisation by the store owner.
