If you select to create a project from a template, you'll be brought to the Templates Library, where you can peruse all the different templates.

Keep in mind that Unlimited access to the Wethos' Templates library is only available to users that have upgraded to Wethos Pro⚡️.

With Wethos Starter, you’ll be able to access one fully built-out scope of work from Wethos’ template library if you haven’t already created your first project. After that, or if you have already created your first project, you’ll have view-only access.

Search for a specific type of project, or use the "Filters" button.
