A stripe structure divides the email template or section into multiple horizontal segments or "stripes." Each stripe represents a row in the layout. Within each stripe, users can add different content blocks such as text, images, buttons, dividers, or other elements. These blocks are arranged horizontally within the stripe and can be customized individually.
A structure refers to the overall layout or arrangement of content within an email template. It defines the high-level organization of different blocks of content.
A container is a specific component within a structure that holds and encapsulates content. It acts as a placeholder or wrapper for blocks, such as text, images, buttons, or additional nested structures.
