### 📄 What Are Layouts?

In Shopify, a layout defines the structure of a page—what sections appear and in what order. Plain Jane uses custom layouts for homepage, product, collection, and password pages.

You can assign a layout when editing a page in the **Admin > Online Store > Pages** or by selecting a **template** in the Theme Editor.
