Dawn - the first free OS 2.0 theme built by Shopify - is a good starting point, you can make it easy or go advanced. Learn why you should consider using the Dawn theme here.

In this first post, let’s begin with creating multicolumn layouts and adding any block types to the grid column.

Nov 30, 2023 Update: In case you are interested, Easy Content Builder now supports metaobject templates.

Dawn is the first free Online Store 2.0 thememaintained and built by Shopify. This flagship theme was first announced in June 2021 at Unite, along with the launch of the Online Store 2.0.

Since then, Dawn has become a Shopify reference theme and is used as the basis for all free Shopify themes. All Shopify development stores created after 29 June 2021 use Dawn as their default theme.

Upon our observation, we’ve recently seen many upvotes from the Shopify developers despite Dawn’s ‘minimal set of features’; a few to name: “The Dawn theme is best, you can make it as easy or go advanced,” “I find the Dawn theme is a great theme for fashion,” “Free theme: I’d go for Dawn. The theme that most Shopify themes are built off so a good starting point if you need further development later.”...

Let’s find out why Dawn is the ideal way to start configuring your Shopify store.

We all know the product page is one of the most essential pages on your Shopify store. In many cases, a short and concise product detail page is crucial to encourage a conversion. 

But there are several circumstances where long-form product detail pages can increase sales better than shorter ones. For instance, if your products/services are: 

• Expensive 
• Complicated
• Or require a big commitment

With longer product pages, you can provide more comprehensive product details and in-depth benefits, showcase the product development behind the scene, etc. This helps your visitors fully understand your product/service better and, in return, convinces them to purchase faster.
