[opencms-dev] Guidance needed: Mercury template vs. Custom template

[niveditasheoran]

Hi,

I’m totally new to OpenCMS and have been tasked with creating a website for a
school. I’m exploring whether I should use the Mercury template or build a
custom template from scratch.

Could someone guide me on what would be the recommended approach for a school
website?
Also, are there any step-by-step guides or documentation available to help with
either option — especially for beginners?

Any suggestions or resources would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
