Customize and Redesign everything within Minutes

You can now quickly customize and redesign everything within minutes. Check out the instructions here.

Creating Awesome Designed Content

You now have created the layout within minutes or hours, but you're still missing the perfectly designed inner pieces, like tile-lists, content-accordeons, galleries, sliders, blogs and more. Fortunately these are both super-easy to add and use the same mechanisms for design. They can even re-use the variables of your skin, to automatically match look and feel :)

To get the awesome designed content, install 2sxc and the default bootstrap4 content-templates. You can then change the SCSS in the content-templates to also point to the _variables.scss of this skin, and re-generate all styles for an amazingly fast development workflow.
