Shopify is moving towards deprecating Sass in themes. But fear not! You can still use it in your own local development environment.

Help improve theme performance by replacing the deprecated 'include' tag with the new and improved 'render' tag.

As you may have heard, this year's Shopify Unite was cancelled due to everyone being stuck at home. But there are still so many exciting announcements to talk about, so they release Shopify (re)unite instead: a virtual conference to announce all the hard work that they team has been working on over the past year.
