01 / Start with settings
Cradle’s theme settings provide a dedicated place for the controls exposed by your theme. Start there for routine presentation changes.
02 / Work with the template
For a deeper change, explore Liquid templates together with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The built-in code editor is available for theme files.
03 / Give the content room
Keep reading order clear, make controls easy to use, and review the design on small and large screens. Let the content lead the layout.
04 / Try a small idea
The local theme playground demonstrates instant title, description and palette changes. It is an independent browser demo, not a connection to a Cradle installation.
