Blueprints are reusable layout templates that save you time when you create content directly in the UI with [Visual Builder](docId\:fw42GyhbrcH5AIDDT18VZ). Save sections and experiences as blueprints, such as a campaign landing page, a contest entry form, a masthead, a hero image, or grid content. For steps, go to [Save as blueprint](docId\:PQQdQrydrRowyXDznq7cv).

For a walkthrough of how to create, use, and manage blueprints, go to the [interactive blueprints demonstration](https://optimizely.navattic.com/cms-blueprints).

Find, rename, or delete blueprints in **Settings > Blueprints**.

## Work with Mark

Mark works with the blueprints your team already maintains. Ask Mark which blueprints exist, or whether you have one for a particular purpose. Mark lists the blueprints on your instance and describes the structure and default values in each one.

Ask Mark to build from a blueprint instead of from scratch. Mark can create a content item from a blueprint or add a saved section blueprint to an experience you are working on. Values in your request override the blueprint defaults. The result keeps the template structure and includes your own content.

Mark cannot save content as a blueprint. To save an experience or section as a blueprint, use Visual Builder. Go to [Save as blueprint](docId\:PQQdQrydrRowyXDznq7cv).
