# Website

> Manage the templates and shared files that your Marzipan-hosted site is built from.

The **Website** area is where you manage the building blocks of your site. Where [pages](/cms/pages) and [posts](/cms/posts) hold your content, the Website area holds the templates that content is poured into, and the files shared across it.

To open it, click on **CMS** in the main navigation menu, then open **Website**.

## Templates

Templates define the layout a page is built from — the sections a page has, and therefore the fields you fill in when you edit it. Each template has its own **CSS** and **JS**, so a template carries the styling and behaviour it needs.

You can **preview** and **validate** a template before using it, so you can check it renders as expected and catch problems before any page depends on it.

<Tip>
  Changing a template changes every page built from it. Preview and validate first, then check a page that uses the template.
</Tip>

## Files

Files are the shared assets used across your site — the things more than one template or page needs to reference. Manage them here rather than uploading a copy for each page that uses them.
