Vendix Theme is the WordPress theme ARN Smart makes for the Vendix plugin and Elementor. It opens its own places for Vendix's store and news parts, banner zones, headers and templates, and gives business, store and news sites a light frame with page layout options, WooCommerce styles and right-to-left support. It also works without the plugin.
Pages are designed in Elementor, so the theme stays in the background: a header, a footer, a page title and the post, store and news parts that Elementor pages do not draw themselves. When a page builder layout replaces the header, footer or content area, the theme steps aside.
The site type in Customizer → Vendix decides the starting values of the sticky header, the footer columns, the breadcrumbs, the blog sidebar and the reading time. Store sites get styled WooCommerce pages, and news sites get a top bar, widget areas for banners and ads, and reading features.

Choose the site type, then build one page.

"Start setup" opens the guided setup of a compatible plugin, and the page lists the recommended plugins, Elementor and ARN Smart Site Utilities for Elementor, with links to WordPress's own install screens; nothing is installed until you click.
Then choose the site type in Customizer → Vendix, build one page in Elementor and check it on a phone.
Let Elementor carry the design and let the theme keep the frame consistent.
