Should I update my theme for OS 2.0 and what's the difference?

I started to prepare my site some months ago and now I happy about how it turned. But my theme is old free ones. Should I change it to the dawn 2.0 ? Whats the difference between os 2.0 themes and others ? Is it only about design or something more ? thanks.

Hi, Welcome to Shopify community,

I have mentioned the point’s you can get this easily.

Pros of Shopify Online Store 2.0

01. Ease of Use, UI/UX

  • The new editor centralizes all available features and functionalities, reflecting real time changes in the editing page
  • The reference theme Dawn, the new standard storefront theme in development, is 35% faster than the current default theme

02. App Integration (with app block)

The theme app extensions for developers can help add a number of features as well as extensions. Before this, there was no way for apps to integrate with themes.

03. Cost: Free of charge

04. Flexibility

Prior to Online Store 2.0, you can only add these theme sections to the homepage. With Online Store 2.0, these theme sections are now dynamic and can be added to any page, like Product Page or Product page.

0.5 Support: Fast Support

if you need anymore help then let me know.

thank you.

Have a Good Day.

I looked at it quickly yesterday but it wasnt something like wix. I couldnt change the header/logo parts as I want. It was basicly any theme but a few more settings, maybe its me i dont know but I didnt find it really flexible or anything. If I keep using minimal theme would it be really bad desicion ? Would it be too slow or else ?
