### 🎨 Recommended Sections

You can add any section, but for most brands we recommend:

#### 📄 Text Block

* Add a `Text Block` section for your story
* Include a subtitle like “Our Story”
* Paste your brand description or mission statement
* Customize:
  * Font family and size
  * Text alignment
  * Text color
  * Animated text effects (e.g. Typewriter, Fade Up, Reveal)

#### 🖼 Image Stream

* Add a `Image Stream` section to display lifestyle or brand imagery
* Optional: Add a “Shop All” link below the images
* Customize:
  * Scroll speed
  * Layout (grid, stream, etc.)
  * Link destination

> 💡 Tip: Add more sections such as FAQ, video blocks, product carousels, or hero images for a more dynamic layout.
