# Customizing Your Theme

In this tutorial, we will customize a Scandi theme in various ways, showing you specific examples of how common changes can be made. You can easily follow along with your own Scandi theme.

## Before You Start

You will need a Scandi app to customize, which you can easily get in a few minutes using `create-scandipwa-app` (CSA). Get started [here](https://docs.create-scandipwa-app.com/getting-started/getting-started)!

You can keep the `npm start` process running throughout this tutorial, so the changes you make will be automatically reflected in the browser.

There is no need for a Magento app, because CSA is clever and can forward all requests to a remote Magento instance.
