Starter Template for Blocs 3
Today, I want to share with you the Starter template, a very special type of template for Blocs 3. It is the perfect starting point with all essential settings for any Blocs 3 project.
If you take a look at the demo for this template, you might not see anything special about it. But, this template comes with dozens of pre-adjusted classes, pre-applied settings, and other adjustments, which make it the perfect starting point for any Blocs 3 project.
No Content, No Style, But lots of Adjustments
This template doesn’t include any dummy content or specific style. I made it this way to make it easier for the user to just open it, add content and images, and publish.
I applied almost all essential settings, which I apply to all of my Blocs 3 projects. The only exception will be specific changes, which require a certain style adjustment. (For example, buttons don't have background color adjusted in classes, so you need to apply them yourself using the global swatches).

Perfect Time Saver I am Going to Use Myself
I plan to use this template myself when I will start new projects in Blocs 3. I believe it will save me a lot of time when building new websites, and just trying to remember all of the essential adjustments I need to make.
P.S. If you don't like some of the changes I have made to this template, I recommend to make a few adjustments to make it your own.
