## Description: A template is a reusable starting point for creating new sites, based on an existing site.

Wix Studio partners create a template from one of their sites, then use that template to create new sites within their account. Each new site is a duplicate of the template's site. A partner can also publish a template, turning it into a public template that other Wix accounts can clone.
