How do you enable sections everywhere?

Perhaps I missed it but I don't see any way to enable the sections everywhere.  I've created a new experimental dev store with Unite 2019 selected.  It comes with a Debut and Dev Preview theme.  Both of these themes appear to be using the old snippets-style paradigm.  

 

Are there steps I need to perform to enable sections everywhere?

 

Thanks,

Tom

This is an accepted solution.

There's no enabling, as there's no UI yet, and Debut doesn't have the new sections built in.

Our own internal team theme devs are just starting to build with the new paradigm, just as partners are.

You should be able to create new directories in your theme that follow the the new theme paradigm, along with new liquid files for the different page types (products, collections, custom pages, and blog). You will be able to test the output on your storefront of the new code but not the new online store design experience (ui) .

Good luck and happy coding!

They took down the developer preview and I believe the CTO Jean-Michel Lemieux mentioned in a partner town hall (maybe in this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mju7MZFnt7s) that Sections Everywhere was going back in the oven to bake.

My take on it, sections everywhere is not happening anytime soon.
