Pages: Template Page
Guides template page design for two distinct use cases: (1) Programmatic SEO — template + data = scale; (2) User-facing templates — users browse, select, and use templates to generate their own content (CMS, images, websites, vibe coding). See programmatic-seo for the scale framework. This skill covers template aggregation pages (gallery, hub) and template detail pages (individual template with "use" flow).
When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
Two Template Page Types
| Type |
Purpose |
Examples |
| Template aggregation page |
Gallery, hub, category; list templates for browse and filter |
Canva /templates, Figma templates, VibeCatalog /templates, uitovibe theme gallery |
| Template detail page |
Individual template; preview, description, "Use this template" CTA |
Single template page; user clicks to copy, customize, or open in editor |
Core Function: Users Use Templates to Generate Content
Beyond SEO, template pages enable direct use: users select a template and generate their own content. Common patterns:
| Domain |
Flow |
Examples |
| CMS |
Browse templates → Select → Create page/post from template |
WordPress themes, Webflow templates, Notion templates |
| Design / Images |
Browse → Preview → Customize in editor |
Canva (Customize this template), Figma (Duplicate to your drafts) |
| Website builders |
Browse → Select → Customize (colors, fonts, content) → Deploy |
VibeCatalog, Lovable, Bolt.new, v0; dashboard, landing page, SaaS templates |
| Vibe coding |
Browse UI themes → Copy style instructions → Add to AI prompt → Generate |
uitovibe (copy instructions, paste into Bolt/Lovable/Cursor prompt) |
Key CTA: "Use this template," "Customize this template," "Copy to editor," "Get this template," "Start with this."
Template Aggregation Page (Gallery / Hub)
| Section |
Purpose |
| Headline |
"Templates for [category]" or "Browse [X] templates" |
| Filters / Categories |
By type (dashboard, landing page, resume), platform (Bolt, Lovable, Next.js), use case |
| Template cards |
Thumbnail, name, short description, "Use" or "Preview" CTA; grid or list |
| Search |
By keyword, tag |
| Social proof |
"X templates," "Used by Y users," ratings |
| CTA |
Primary action (Browse, Get started, Sign up to use) |
Reference: Canva organizes by 50+ design types (Docs, Presentations, Logos, Instagram Posts, etc.); Figma offers 300+ templates; VibeCatalog by project type (dashboards, landing pages). See card for template card structure and grid layout.
Template Detail Page (Individual Template)
| Section |
Purpose |
| Hero |
Template name, one-line benefit; primary CTA: "Use this template" / "Customize" / "Copy" |
| Preview |
Live preview, screenshot, or interactive demo; multiple views (desktop, mobile) |
| Description |
What it does, who it's for, what's included |
| Features / What's included |
Components, sections, customization options (colors, fonts, layouts) |
| How to use |
Steps: Copy → Paste in editor / Open in [tool] → Customize |
| Platform compatibility |
Bolt, Lovable, v0, Next.js, React, etc. |
| FAQ |
"Can I use commercially?", "Do I get source code?", "How do I customize?" |
| Related templates |
Internal links to similar templates |
Vibe coding pattern (uitovibe, VibeCatalog): Template = style instructions or full code; user copies instructions into AI prompt or downloads/clones to customize. CTA: "Copy instructions," "Add to prompt," "Get template."
Template + Programmatic SEO
When templates are generated at scale from data (location pages, integration pages, comparison pages), use programmatic-seo framework:
| Section |
Purpose |
Data Slot |
| Intro |
H1, intro; matches intent |
{entity_name}, {context} |
| Evidence block |
Tables, lists, verified data; avoids thin content |
{data_table}, {list_items} |
| Decision |
Recommendation, next steps |
{recommendation} |
| FAQ |
Schema-friendly Q&A |
{faq_items} |
| CTA |
Conversion |
{cta_destination} |
See programmatic-seo for data, automation, pitfalls. When programmatic pages have conversion goals, apply landing-page-generator principles.
Template + Landing Page (Conversion-Focused Programmatic)
When programmatic pages drive signup/lead capture (e.g., "[Product] for [City]" LPs), apply landing page structure to the template: Stop the scroll → Earn trust → Explain value → Remove doubt → Make the ask. See landing-page-generator.
