Before getting down to business there are some important, frequently occurring concepts you need to familiarize yourself with.
Introduction
Store Framework is a commerce low-code tool used for building unique and custom storefronts.
The building flow starts with a custom theme, which can be worked on in different workspaces, without impacting the production environment.
Theme
A theme is essentially an arrangement of blocks and their position. In a theme, you can define every customization, position and style for every block that theme encompasses. You can also declare new pages in a theme, pages that in the future may represent about us or promotional landing pages (such as mother's day, black Friday, cyber Monday pages). The theme's end result consists of the content it's comprised of, in addition to the storefront.
Blocks
Blocks are the minimal abstraction in Store Framework. They declare small pieces that make up a store's layout. Although they may look simple at first, blocks are imbued with a high customization power, allowing us to achieve complex designs. There are a total of four block customization levels:
semantic style (styles);
properties (props);
css classes (handles);
children (children)
Workspaces
Secure work environments that show a very close copy of what is running in production, allowing themes to be developed further without affecting the store.
