Instead of stitching together\n      separate tools (hosting + themes + plugins), you work inside a single admin panel where pages, styles, and\n      business settings are configured centrally.\n    <\/p>\n    <div class=\"ss-sub\">\n      <strong>Example (simple):<\/strong>\n      <p>\n        You choose a template, add your pages, connect a domain, and publish \u2014 Squarespace runs the hosting and keeps the site online.\n      <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ss-container\">\n    <h2>Design system: templates + Fluid Engine editor<\/h2>\n    <p>\n      Squarespace sites typically start from professionally designed templates, then you customise layout and styling\n      using its drag-and-drop editing system. In Squarespace 7.1, Fluid Engine is the primary editor and uses a grid-based\n      system to position blocks with more layout control (alignment, spacing, and layered sections) while remaining\n      manageable for non-developers.\n    <\/p>\n    <div class=\"ss-sub\">\n      <strong>Example (simple):<\/strong>\n      <p>\n        Drag a \u201cbutton\u201d block under your hero text, snap it into the grid, then adjust padding and fonts without writing CSS.\n      <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ss-container\">\n    <h2>Two ways to build: all-in-one site vs modular business stack (Two-column layout #1)<\/h2>\n    <p>\n      Squarespace can be used as a complete \u201csingle platform\u201d (site + store + email + scheduling), or as a modular\n      system where you use only the parts you need (for example, a content site with scheduling, or a portfolio with\n      light commerce).\n    <\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"ss-two-col\">\n      <div class=\"ss-col\">\n        <h3>Option A: All-in-one (most common)<\/h3>\n        <p>\n          Use Squarespace pages, styling, ecommerce, email marketing, and booking tools in one dashboard. This reduces\n          plugin conflicts and simplifies maintenance.\n        <\/p>\n        <p class=\"ss-mini\"><strong>Best for:<\/strong> creators, service businesses, small brands that want speed and simplicity.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n\n      <div class=\"ss-col\">\n        <h3>Option B: Modular usage<\/h3>\n        <p>\n          Use Squarespace for the website and content, but keep specialised tools elsewhere (e.g., external CRM\/ERP),\n          connecting through embeds or integrations where needed.\n        <\/p>\n        <p class=\"ss-mini\"><strong>Best for:<\/strong> teams with existing systems that only need a polished site front-end.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"ss-sub\">\n      <strong>Example (simple):<\/strong>\n      <p>\n        A consultant uses Squarespace for the website and email campaigns, but keeps client management in a separate CRM.\n      <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ss-container\">\n    <h2>Ecommerce capabilities for simple-to-advanced selling<\/h2>\n    <p>\n      Squarespace supports ecommerce for physical products, services, and (on eligible plans) digital products.\n      The platform focuses on store essentials\u2014product pages, variants, inventory basics, checkout, taxes\/shipping\n      settings, and order management\u2014integrated directly into the same system that controls site design.\n    <\/p>\n    <div class=\"ss-sub\">\n      <strong>Example (simple):<\/strong>\n      <p>\n        Add a product with size variants (S\/M\/L), set stock counts, then take card payments through checkout without installing extra plugins.\n      <\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ss-container\">\n    <h2>Scheduling and appointments (Acuity Scheduling integration)<\/h2>\n    <p>\n      Squarespace offers scheduling via Acuity Scheduling, enabling appointment booking, client intake forms,\n      timezone handling, and payment collection flows.
