# Elements Store

The built-in store is a central place to discover, share, and buy products made for RapidWeaver Elements: components, templates, projects, themes, and resource packs. You can browse free and paid products, install them directly into Elements, and even submit your own work to share with others.

#### Finding the Elements Store

The Elements Store is available [on the web](https://store.elementsapp.io/) and [in-app](elementsapp://storeProduct/).

Over time the store will be integrated more tightly into Elements, but for now, you can open the Elements Store by clicking on the "Store" icon in the Elements toolbar.
