Themes are the main building blocks of the storefront. They hold styles, settings, and templates for the storefront.

​
Default Theme

Spree comes with a default theme called default. It is used as a base for all the themes and contains the core styles and scripts. This theme is included with the Spree Commerce core and is always available.

​
Creating a New Theme

You can create your custom themes by following the steps below.

bin/rails g spree:storefront:theme MyTheme

This command will create a new theme called my_theme in the app/views/themes directory and copy the default theme files to the new theme.

It will also add a line in your config/initializers/spree.rb file to load the new theme.

Rails.application.config.spree.themes << Spree::Themes::MyTheme

Now you can go to Admin Dashboard -> Storefront -> Themes, you should see a new section Add new theme with your theme name. Click Add button to activate the theme.

​
Theme Templates

Theme has the following template structure:

├── account
│   ├── store_credits
│   ├── profile
│   ├── orders
│   ├── newsletter
│   └── addresses
├── checkout
├── contacts
├── orders
├── page_sections
├── policies
├── posts
├── products
├── search
├── settings
├── shared
└── wishlists

Each directory contains standard Ruby on Rails ERB templates for the corresponding page.

The page_sections directory contains sections that are used globally across the storefront.

The shared directory contains shared components that are used across the storefront.

​
Theme Settings

The theme settings are stored in the app/models/spree/themes/my_theme.rb file.
