Building Joomla Templates with AI: Linelabox Template Architect

Linelabox is a free visual editor for Joomla templates with a full installation ZIP and an AI layer that builds with an architect's precision.

Linelabox visual editor for building Joomla templates with AI

We have built a visual editor for creating Joomla templates with an AI layer that builds with the precision of an architect, not like an uncontrolled generator of random code.

Developing your own Joomla template is a tedious combination of graphic design, coding, tuning the responsive behaviour and assembling the installation structure. Linelabox Template Architect turns this complex process into an intuitive visual experience. It is not an ordinary page builder for a single page, but a complete platform for creating real, installable Joomla templates, from the global concept down to the details of system pages and components.

Visual editor

Build visually, get honest code

Compose rows, columns, module positions and the main component area. Use the supported modules, ready-made elements or complete starter templates. You can adjust every detail directly on the canvas or in the detailed inspector.

You can test the result immediately, both in the editor and in a separate live preview. All changes are saved automatically, and thanks to version history you can return to previous steps at any time.

What you can configure in Linelabox
  • Colours, typography and design tokens
  • Spacing, borders, shadows and backgrounds
  • Buttons, cards, forms and navigation
  • Headers, footers and menu variants
  • Behaviour on mobiles, tablets and desktops
  • Element visibility by screen size
  • Custom HTML and CSS code
  • The look of individual Joomla Pages

Component pages

Pages: full control over Joomla output

The heart of the whole system is Pages. These are not static content, but dynamic templates for system output. You can easily design a unique look for the article detail, blog category, article list, search results, contact form, archive or privacy policy pages.

Semantic elements

No need to wade through cluttered code. The inspector works directly with concepts such as heading, description, filter, card, table, image or metadata.

Smart responsiveness

Adapt the look for any device. Style changes on one type of element are automatically applied across the whole website.

Safe preview

You work with sample data. While editing, no forms are submitted, no logins happen and no real actions are triggered.

E-commerce

Full support for Phoca Cart

Do you run an online shop? Linelabox includes native styling for Phoca Cart. You can visually customise the catalogue, categories, product detail, basket, checkout, customer account and wish list.

All previews fully respect the architecture of Phoca Cart and Bootstrap 5. Support for mobile display, RTL mode and switching between light and dark mode comes as standard.

Display modes: Grid, Gridlist and List

Switch between product views and fine-tune their style down to the last detail. The switching is purely for graphic design and does not touch the shop's real data in any way.

Smart AI layer

AI as an architect, not an uncontrolled generator

Linelabox includes an advanced AI assistant that works completely differently from ordinary generators. At launch it is available to selected testers.

The artificial intelligence does not write uncontrolled or faulty code. Based on your brief, it proposes a logical structure and assembles it exclusively from verified elements that the editor understands perfectly.

  • Structured design. The AI proposes the ideal layout of sections, module positions, typography and colour schemes.
  • Quality control. Every proposal goes through strict quality control and sanitisation.
  • Speed and low cost. Thanks to high efficiency and low token consumption, the AI features remain very affordable.

Installation package

One-click installation

Forget about uploading files manually via FTP or fiddling with code. Linelabox generates a clean, standard installation ZIP package for you.

  1. Step 1

    Finish the design

    Design the layout, Pages and responsive variants directly in the visual editor.

  2. Step 2

    Download the ZIP

    With one click you generate a package containing the template and all the necessary data.

  3. Step 3

    Install into Joomla

    Upload the ZIP file in the extension manager and the template is ready to use immediately.

The result is a fully standalone and portable Joomla template. The editor does not touch your website's database, and the installation protects your existing settings and modules.

Starter templates

24+ ready-made Joomla templates

You do not have to start from scratch. Pick a ready-made template, adapt it to your brand and download it as an installation package.
