These themes are designed to offer various styles, are available for free download, and can be previewed before being applied.\n\nTo learn how to import these themes you can read our [Theme Importer article](theme-importer).\n\nAll themes run on top of StoreConnect’s Base Theme. This means without a theme installed, your site uses the base theme only. If your store has its own theme, it will use that theme to override portions of the base theme. This means installed themes do not need to include components for every part of your website.\n\n:::tip\nWatch the [Install downloadable themes](install-downloadable-themes) video tutorial for a walkthrough of downloading and importing a theme.\n:::\n\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/1203677818?badge=0\u0026autopause=0\u0026player_id=0\u0026app_id=58479\" title=\"Install downloadable themes\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\"\u003e\u003c/iframe\u003e\n\n## Available themes\n\nStoreConnect currently offers six downloadable themes, each designed for a different type of store. All themes are free, hosted on GitHub, and can be imported using the [Theme importer](theme-importer). Each theme extends the Base Theme, so you only need to customize the parts that differ from the default.\n\n| Theme | Best for |\n|---|---|\n| [Clean theme](clean-theme) | Health, pharmacy, and home-care stores |\n| [Corporate theme](corporate-theme) | Corporate, B2B, and service companies |\n| [Elegance theme](elegance-theme) | Fashion, beauty, and home styling stores |\n| [Souvenir theme](souvenir-theme) | Gift shops, clothing boutiques, and fashion stores |\n| [Simple donation theme](simple-donation-theme) | Nonprofit organizations |\n| [Velvet cascade theme](velvet-cascade-theme) | Retail boutiques and clothing stores |\n\n## StoreConnect’s base theme\n\n**[GitHub Repository](https://github.com/GetStoreConnect/base-theme)**\n\nThe Base Theme is a clean, minimal starter theme that is the default in every StoreConnect installation. It includes all the essential templates that make up your store’s frontend.\n\nYou don’t need to upload this theme—it’s already bundled with your StoreConnect setup. If you want to build your own theme, or further customize a downloaded theme, you can copy and modify any template from our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/GetStoreConnect/base-theme) as needed.\n\n![Base Theme Templates](https://res.cloudinary.com/hzkr6fi81/image/upload/v1781677765/documentation-media/doc-base-theme2.png)\n\n-   **Snippets:** Reusable templates loadable from any other template, facilitating consistent elements like headers, footers, cards, etc. across multiple pages.\n\n-   **Locales:** Define language-specific translations, ensuring your theme supports multiple languages by creating a locale for each store.\n\n-   **Variables:** Key-value pairs offering configuration options for your theme’s settings.\n\n-   **Assets:** Repository for storing CSS and JS assets, maintaining organized management of your store’s styling and scripting resources."}
