=======================
Creating a site package
=======================

The next step is to create a site package. In TYPO3, a site package is a
structured package that organizes the layout, design, and essential
configuration settings for your website. By using a site package, you can
manage all customizations in one place, which keeps your changes organized and
makes your project easier to maintain, even through TYPO3 updates.

How to create a site package
============================

To create a site package, you have two main options:

* Manual creation: For full control over your project's setup, you can follow
the detailed instructions int the
:ref:`TYPO3 site package tutorial <t3sitepackage:start>`.

* Using the `Sitepackage-Builder <https://www.sitepackagebuilder.com/>`__:
If you are looking for a faster start, the Sitepackage-Builder is a
handy tool. You can choose whether your site package should be based on
the `Bootstrap Package <https://www.bootstrap-package.com/>`__ or
:ref:`fluid_styled_content <typo3/cms-fluid-styled-content:introduction>`.
