Template development
Create a reusable iPolloWork template that opens as a safe, editable copy in a new session.
An iPolloWork template is a versioned local .ipwt package. It gives a person or team a known-good starting point without reusing an old session directly. Installing a package adds it to a personal library. Choosing Use creates a fresh session-owned copy, so uninstalling or updating the template cannot remove existing work.
Package source stays reusable. Applied work becomes a new session artifact with its own editable state.
- 01Author

- 02Describe
Declare manifest metadata, entry point, and editable variables.

Choose a surface
| Outcome | category | surface | Required entry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Site, app prototype, slides, poster, card, report, or article | site, app, slides, poster, cards, report, or article | design | Static HTML, usually entry.html |
| HyperFrames composition | video | video | index.html at package root |
The supported categories are site, video, app, slides, poster, cards, report, and article. A video template must use both category: "video" and surface: "video".
Build a template from a working artifact
- Start with a proven Design or Video artifact, not a static screenshot.
- Move required files into a self-contained folder using only relative paths.
- Define
manifest.jsonand the editor-facing variable contract. - Add a 16:9 cover image and a concise apply checklist.
- Create the
.ipwtarchive withmanifest.jsonat the archive root. - Import it through Template Market → Import .ipwt.
- Use the installed package to create a new session and validate the result there.
There is currently no public hosted-market publishing API. The current supported format is the local .ipwt package.
Continue with the package format, then choose either a Design template or a Video template guide.
