# Layout template folder

**`/WEB-INF/config/template/[project]/layout`**

This folder has the XSLT templates and configuration files that generate the layout for a specific project.

> **Note:** The folder name is capitalized and case-sensitive!

## Layout configuration

The default layout configuration can be overridden using a project specific `config.xml` file. For further detail about the config file, *see* [Layout Manager Config 1.4 (obsolete)](../../version_5/schemas/layout_config.md).

```text

/WEB-INF/config/template/[project]/layout/config.xml
```

## File organization

Sub-folders are named after the type of UI component in the layout which might be a page, block, tree or dialog. Within these folders, each component-specific template is stored as an XSLT template named after the component ID.

For example, the template for a ‘my-report’ page in the default perspective for the 'acme' project would be stored under:

```text

/WEB-INF/config/template/acme/layout/Page/my-report.xsl
```

## Perspectives

The file structure within that folder is identical for all perspectives.
