Site Template Tailwind

This template is an opinionated version of the Adobe standard site template for AEM. It is implemented with the best modern tools and libraries that enable rapid development and ensure code conformity. It comes with a Wireframe demo theme, which is styled separately from the theme files for easy removal. This template can serve as a standard starting point for creating a new site, or as a starting point for creating custom site templates.
