Edit your page content

Starter templates contain modules, which are blocks of website content. These modules may be arranged in horizontal rows or vertical columns.

Rows and columns may be grouped into sections of elements. By grouping elements together, you can apply background styles to an entire area of your page. You can also drag and drop these elements to rearrange your landing page layout.
