Electronic product design

A computer-implemented method comprising

• receiving, by one or more processors, a user request to initiate a product design session using a selected template, the selected template assembled using a first set of a plurality of component elements, wherein each of the plurality of component elements are associated with a unique component element identifier, the first set of the plurality of component elements including at least a layout component element specifying at least a size and a positioning of all containers in the respective layout component element, and at least one of a design component element, an image component element, a text group component element, a font scheme component element, and/or a color scheme component element;
• in response to the user request, associating a product description identifier with the unique component element identifiers of the first set of the plurality of component elements required to assemble the selected template;
• displaying, by one or more processors, the selected template to the user;
• displaying, by one or more processors, to the user identifiers associated with one or more earlier products associated with the user, and
• in response to user selection of one of the earlier product identifiers, associating at least one of the unique component element identifiers of the selected earlier product with the product description identifier and updating the displayed template to reflect the change.

A computer program product embodied on a computer readable medium, the computer program product comprising computer code adapted to

• in response to the user request, associate a product description identifier with a the unique component element identifiers of the first set of the plurality of component elements required to assemble the selected template;
• display the selected template to the user;
• provide one or more tools allowing the user to change at least one component element of the displayed template with a different component element associated with a different component element identifier;
• in response to each user change of the at least one component element of the displayed template, associate the component element identifier of the different component element with the product description identifier and updating the displayed template to reflect the change,
• use at least one or more of the component element identifiers associated with the product description identifier as component element identifiers of a different template assembled using a second set of a plurality of component elements, the second set of the plurality of component elements comprising at least one different component element than the first selected template, and
• displaying the different template to the user.
