Thank you for using the template. If you have any questions that are beyond the scope of this file, please feel free to ask on the comment section of the article page, but there is no warranty. Please share the template on your social network.
Apart from this doc there is a live preview with examples and also the code is commented for your convenience.

Please note: when you access it from a server like localhost, by default php-version is served even though you browse using .html extension, remove .htaccess file if you need HTML files to be served.
