Hi guys,
Could you make an explanatory video for the template builder? What are its advantages?
I have the stock template, then I have about 100 lines of overrides (including color etc...). Will it be easier to create a new template with it? What are those red, green etc... colors for?
How can I change the colour of my fields with template builder?

Could you make an explanatory video for the template builder?

My blog post below covers the template builder usage completely. Suggest reading it carefully as it also covers using a Bootstrap 4 3rd party theme builder usecase for even more control.

What are its advantages?

You can change the Bootstrap 4 colors so it better blends in with your Joomla template.

I have the stock template, then I have about 100 lines of overrides (including color etc...). Will it be easier to create a new template with it?

Depends on what you're changing.

What are those red, green etc... colors for?

As stated on the Theme tab they're Bootstrap 4 color variables.

How can I change the colour of my fields with template builder?

No idea what fields you're trying to change. The Template Builder is to allow you to build custom Bootstrap 4 and Template CSS based off your Theme. It then generates and installs a CB template plugin automatically. It is not for implementing custom CSS outside of that scope, but it does also provide easy access to Overrides usage too using the Overrides tab.
