About templates

What is a template?

A template is a ready-made layout for Containd: item types, categories, and optional behaviour you can install into the app.

• What’s inside — A downloadable package (JSON plus images and other media) that the Containd app understands.
• How you use it — Install from this catalog into the app, or open an example Space on containd.space to see it in action.
• Who builds them — templates.containd.app
• Classes — Named building blocks inside a template. Catalog pages link templates that share the same class.

Scripts and safety

Some templates include small scripts (for example timers or custom actions). That does not mean arbitrary code runs on this website.

• In the Containd app, template scripts run only inside a js-interpreter sandbox — a restricted environment, not as normal unrestricted JavaScript on your device.
• Browsing this catalog or a published Space on the web does not execute those template scripts in your browser the way a normal website script would.
• Prefer Official catalog templates from authors you trust. Report suspicious content via the site’s Report content link.

Install & packages

• Each template package is a self-contained file at /packages/{slug}/{version}.json on this site.
• Install with the Open in Containd button, download the package and import it in Settings, or find templates in Discover inside the app.
• Hosts: catalog.containd.app (this catalog) · containd.space (published Spaces) · editor templates.containd.app · www.containd.app.

Classes

Classes are shared building blocks. Each class page lists Official public templates that define or use that class.
