  Each theme has a [role](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/OnlineStoreTheme#field-OnlineStoreTheme.fields.role) that indicates its status. Main themes are live on the storefront, unpublished themes are inactive, demo themes require purchase before publishing, and development themes are temporary for previewing during development.
