Start from a template

What a template is

A template is a complete sample website for one kind of business, such as a clinic, a restaurant, an office or a shop. It comes with pages, sections, sample copy and a visual style. You don't need the perfect template: pick the closest one and adjust the rest.

The template is only the starting point. Once created, the project is yours: later changes to the template don't affect your site.

Where to find templates

• On the website, the template gallery shows them all, grouped by category.
• In your account, under Templates in the sidebar and in the Templates tab on the Dashboard.
• Preview opens a demo of the template before you decide.
• Templates marked Coming soon can't be used yet.

Use a template

1. 1

   Open Templates in the sidebar

   Or go straight to the gallery in your account.

2. 2

   Click Preview if you want to look inside first

3. 3

   Click Use template

   The button shows Creating project… and the editor opens right after.

4. 4

   Replace the sample content with yours

   In the editor, or by asking the AI in the chat.

Start by describing your business

In the box on the Dashboard, describe your business in a few lines: the name, what you sell, the city, the tone. Micronuage decides where to start:

• If the description clearly names one kind of business, the project starts from that template.
• If several are close, How should we start? appears, with the closest templates (Start from this template) and the option Create from what I wrote.
• A written specification (a long text describing pages, sections and rules) or a description of a system with users and data is built as written.

How the AI adapts the template

The details you wrote, such as name, contacts, city and services, go onto the site, and the AI rewrites the template's copy to talk about your business instead of the sample one. This first adaptation uses no credits. The project's name and address follow the business name shown on the site.

In code projects, when the template was written for another kind of business or your description has requirements of its own (pages, prices, words to avoid), the AI does the adaptation as the chat's first request. That request uses credits like any other and, if it is large, asks you to confirm first.

Good to know

• Every project created from a template counts toward your plan's project limit. See Projects.
• On the Free plan, building a whole site from a written specification is possible once a month.
• A clear description helps: see Write good prompts.
