Say you’re setting up a brand-new store and the very first page needs to exist — but you don’t have a clear layout in mind, and the brand itself isn’t fully defined yet either. Describing a page from scratch is harder when you don’t know exactly what you want it to look like. Starting from a template is the other way in.
Browse by type and by sector, not just a generic list
The template gallery is organized by page type — home or landing — and can be filtered by sector, so you’re not scrolling past templates built for an industry that has nothing to do with yours. Each one shows a real thumbnail rather than a generic placeholder, and you can preview it at full size before deciding anything.
Create the page, then make it yours
Once you pick one, you create your page from that template and adapt it to your brand from there — it’s a starting point you edit, not a fixed layout you’re stuck with. If you want to see what else is available to add to it, the widget catalog can be explored by category the same way it can from anywhere else in the editor.
If the brand itself isn’t ready yet
Adapting the template to your brand assumes there’s a brand to adapt it to. If you haven’t defined a palette and corner style by hand, MagicFront can generate that identity automatically by analyzing an existing website — so the template isn’t sitting there in default colors while you figure out your palette separately.
The takeaway
Not every page starts with a clear description of what it should say. When it starts with “I don’t know exactly what this should look like yet,” a template — filtered to your sector, previewed before you commit, then adapted to a brand you can also generate automatically — is the more honest starting point.
