Joomni Studio
Joomni Studio is where designers build themes for the Joomni theme store. You design with the same visual page builder merchants use, in free sandbox stores filled with demo products, then submit your theme for review.
Who it is for
Designers, agencies and developers who want their themes installed on Joomni stores. You don't need to run a shop, and you don't need to code: the page builder is fully visual. Liquid is there if you want custom markup. If you already have a Joomni store, use the same account; open Theme Studio from the account menu.

Sandboxes
A sandbox is a real Joomni store that is free, never billed and hidden from search engines. It comes filled with demo products, collections and customers for the store type you choose, so your theme always has something to show. Sandboxes don't appear in your merchant store switcher.
Create a sandbox
In Sandboxes, give it a name and pick a store type (Retail, Restaurant, Real Estate and so on). The store type decides the demo data and which sections the library offers.Pick a foundation
Open the sandbox and choose a starting theme under Themes. You can rebuild every page of it afterwards.Design
Click Open editor. It is the same page builder merchants use, with the section library, theme settings, header and footer.Preview
Use View storefront to see the real storefront your theme renders.
| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| Re-seed demo data | Puts the demo products, collections and customers back to the starting set. Your themes, pages and sections are not touched. |
| Delete | Removes the sandbox and any theme drafts in it. Versions you already submitted keep their own snapshot. |

Tiers and earnings
Every builder starts at Community. After three approved themes with no policy strikes you move to Verified, and your reviews take 2 business days instead of 5. Builders keep 70% of each sale. Paid themes aren't switched on yet, so for now themes are free and earn installs, ratings and reputation.
Merchants keep what they install
