# Edit design template

A design template is an asset that renders to an image on request, built in [Template Builder](/studio/template-builder.md).

Opening a template asset in the Asset Details window gives you two actions:

* **Edit template** opens it in Template Builder, where you can change the design, its layouts, layers and variables. See [Building a template](/studio/template-builder/building-a-template/layouts.md).
* **Add variation**, in the asset's **Variations** tab, fills the template in and saves the result as a reusable image link. See [Variations](/studio/template-builder/variations.md).

To create a template from scratch, see [Creating a template](/studio/template-builder/creating-a-template.md).
