What are templates?
Templates in Maze are a quick and easy way to solve a particular problem using a library of pre-built mazes.
Once you find a template you like, you can use it to create a new maze and add pre-populated blocks to get started right away. If you need to add more questions or tweak the maze, you can make changes, just like you would in any other maze.
You'll find templates broken down into two main categories:
- Basic: These templates don't require any paid features, and can be used by Free customers right from the start.
- Pro: These templates use one or more features that require a paid subscription, and thus are only available to customers on a paid plan. These templates are marked in the templates list with a PRO label.
Where can I find templates in Maze?
You can find a preview of all our available templates in maze.co/templates
Additionally, you will also see the templates library right after logging in, when clicking the View Templates button on the top right corner.
