Overview
This document will detail the steps to editing a storefront template.
The StoreFront theme is wide open for you to edit. Before you do, please consider the following warning: By modifying theme files, you risk conflicts when upgrading your theme to subsequent versions. This warning doesn't mean you should never modify your templates! It just means you should be sure you have a good reason to do so. You may need some help handling merge conflicts when you perform your next theme upgrade.
If you feel your edits might be beneficial to others, contact the theme developers and ask them to make the change in the official theme. Not only will it help others, it will give you the feature you need without the hassle of upgrade conflicts in the future. At the very least, talking through the change with the theme developers might provide advice on the best way to go about your change if it's a substantial one.
