What does Website templates mean?

Website templates are ready-made designs of a website's look and layout that let you create pages without designing their structure from scratch. They usually define the look of the navigation, header, footer, content sections, buttons, forms or other elements. Depending on the platform used, a template can be further customized, for example by changing colors, fonts, images, texts and content layout. The advantages are faster website creation and lower costs compared to an individual design. However, the scope of customization, available features and technical customization options always vary by template and system.
