Stephen and Chris hop on the ol’ podcast to talk about all the ways that Templates are way better in 2.0 land. You’ve always been able to make your own templates, but now you can select one even after you’ve arrived in the editor. There is a new place (the create page) which features bookmarked and official templates (as well as your own). Most importantly, there is a way to set a “default template” now, meaning all new Pens will start with the same setup as the Pen you pick as that.
