Customizer

Customizer is a WYSIWYG theme settings interface. You can setup typography, navigation, widgets positioning, background images and colors settings here. Our theme installation will provide you with a wider range of settings, such as social networks configuration, page layouts setting, sidebars, block setting and much more. The main advantage is that you can see the result immediately, and you can change it in no time flat without having to work with the files or code.

There are two ways to start configuring. First is to navigate to Appearance > Customize section. Second way is to press on Customize at the top left corner of site. This way allows you to edit the page you’re currently viewing. And the first way initially shows the site front page by default.
