- Detail screens - What components show item details? How dense is the layout?
- Forms - How is data entry organized? What validations exist?
- Navigation - How many tabs? What's in the menu vs navigation?
- Computed columns - What calculations or transformations are used?
- Relationships - How are tables connected?
When to Research Templates
Before building a new app type - Search for templates in the same category to understand common patterns and user expectations.
When implementing a specific feature - Find a template that has that feature and see how it's built.
During design review - Compare your screens to professional templates. Are you using the same level of component variety and data density?
When stuck on layout - Templates show proven layouts for common scenarios.
Template Research Workflow
