Selling one hero product and want the whole store to revolve around it?
The Fareed theme is built to put a single product in the spotlight and show off everything that makes it worth buying, using components such as feature tabs and a horizontal feature list. It also handles a full product lineup on the homepage, so it works just as well for a multi-product store. In this guide, you'll learn how to install the Fareed theme, add its new components, and customize its design options.
To install the Fareed theme, open the Themes store from your dashboard, find Fareed, click (Buy now), and complete the payment. Then open Store design, create a new version of the theme, and click (Customize) to set up its components and design options before it goes live.

๐ Important notes
Customize a new version of the theme rather than editing a live one, so your storefront only changes when you decide it should.
Design options are saved per theme version, so a change you make in one version does not carry into another.

Components built to sell a product on its merits, such as feature tabs and a horizontal feature list, plus a wider product image gallery and the option to show the product's brand.

How do I know which components belong to the Fareed theme?
