What are Design Libraries?

Design libraries are your secret weapon in creating visually stunning websites. They are the collections of design elements such as font styles, color schemes, and other visual assets that you can save, reuse, and apply throughout different projects. Think of them as your go-to toolkit that you can quickly whip out whenever you're working on a new site or revamping an existing one.

With design libraries, you can:

- Save time by reusing pre-made design elements, such as color schemes and typography settings.

- Keep a consistent design language throughout your projects, which adds a professional touch to your websites.

- Experiment with different design styles by quickly switching between saved libraries, allowing you to find the perfect look and feel for your site without much hassle.

Accessing and Managing Design Libraries

1. To access the design libraries in Editor X, click on the "Site Styles" tab in the editor.

2. You'll notice the "Design Libraries" button on this panel. Click it to reveal a dropdown menu showcasing all your saved design libraries.

3. If you're new to design libraries or haven't saved any yet, don't fret! We'll discuss how to create and save them in a bit.

4. To see your libraries in action, hover over a design library, and watch your site's colors and font styles change to match that library.

5. To apply a design library to your current project, simply click on it. Note that this will override the current color and typography settings on your site, so make sure to double-check before confirming the change.

Creating and Saving Your Own Design Library

1. To create a new design library, first ensure that your site has the desired color scheme and typography settings you'd like to save.

2. Head back to the "Site Styles" tab, and click on "Colors" or "Typography" to reveal the design library options.

3. Click on "Save Colors to Library" or "Save Typography to Library," depending on what you're saving.

4. In the popup window, you can either overwrite an existing design library (by selecting a previous one) or create a new one. If you're making a new library, choose a name that represents the theme or website you're currently working on.

5. Once everything is in order, click "Save" to store your newly created design library!

And that's it! You've successfully created and saved your own design library in Editor X. Now you can easily switch between designs in a snap, without the headache of manually reapplying colors and font styles every time.
