What is a Template?

A template in Templated is a dynamic design blueprint made up of multiple layers.

Each layer can represent text, images, shapes, or colors, and together they define the overall layout and style of your design.

Because templates are dynamic, you can replace or customize their content at any time—such as changing the text, swapping an image, or adjusting colors—while keeping the design structure intact.

For example:

• A social media post template might include:
• A background image layer
• A title text layer
• A price text layer
• A logo image layer

When you create a render, these layers are filled with your actual data, producing the final design.

Think of it this way:

• Template = the dynamic structure (layers + style).
• Render = the finished product (your data applied to the template).
