What these apps add is a theme app extension, and that mechanism is the whole reason to prefer one over pasting code. Sections arrive without altering your theme's files, you place them in the theme editor like any other section, and if you uninstall the app the blocks are removed from your themes entirely rather than left behind as broken markup. Keeping theme files untouched also matters for updates, since a theme updates itself automatically only while its files are in their original state.

The limits are published, and they arrive sooner than people expect on a busy home page: a JSON template holds a bounded number of sections, a section a bounded number of blocks. The other thing to plan for is that all of this lives inside one theme. Sections you add are part of that theme's own configuration, so publishing a new theme means building the page again in the new one.

What to look for in a Section Hero app

A library, or a generator: Most listings here sell a catalog of ready-made sections you browse and drop in. A few generate one from a description instead. The first is predictable and easy to judge from screenshots; the second is faster for something nobody has made before. They are not really the same product.
How it behaves when you leave: Because these install as app extensions, uninstalling takes the sections with them. That is the correct behavior and it is worth planning for: a page built entirely from one vendor's blocks disappears with the subscription.
Whether you needed a page builder instead: Shopify has no separate category for section tools; these are filed with page builders, and several build whole pages too. If you want one custom home page, the lighter section approach fits. If you want landing pages with their own templates and analytics, you are shopping in the other half of the same category.

What does the Built for Shopify badge mean?

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
