Templates

These are real BlockForge project JSON templates. Download one, import it into BlockForge, and export a site. Template JSON files are expected to live in this site’s export folder under /themes/. If your browser previews JSON instead of downloading, use the provided download-link patch (or hosting headers) to force download.

How templates will work here

Each template will be shipped as a real BlockForge project JSON so you can import it, tweak tokens/copy, then export a static ZIP. No custom CSS strings, no raw HTML soup.

For now this page includes placeholders — once you approve a few designs, we’ll replace them with the real template cards and download links.

The Ledger — theme demos

Try the same News/Article template in three palettes. These links expect the theme exports to live in this site’s export folder under /themes/the_ledger/ (so you can drop them in later without changing the site).

The Ledger — Light

Academic light palette (clean white surfaces + deep ink text).

The Ledger — Intermediate

Mid-tone palette (muted background + high-contrast text; no auto theme mismatch).

The Ledger — Dark

Dark palette (dark background + light text; gradients stay readable).

Expected paths: themes/the_ledger/light/index.html, themes/the_ledger/intermediate/index.html, themes/the_ledger/dark/index.html

Want a specific template first?

Tell me the goal (promo, docs, landing, portfolio), how many pages you want, and your preferred tone. I’ll build it using only BlockForge blocks/settings and publish it here as an importable JSON.
