# Guides

- [Trait Templates](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates.md): Trait Templates are JSON files that encompass a collection of traits, which can be recorded on the blockchain, and mapped to Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).
- [Create a New Trait Template](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/create-a-new-trait-template.md)
- [Adding Media to Trait Templates](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/create-a-new-trait-template/adding-media-to-trait-templates.md): When minting traits, each trait can have a media asset such as an image. In this guide, we will provide instructions on preparing image URLs for traits to be minted to collections.
- [Setting Render Order for Traits](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/create-a-new-trait-template/setting-render-order-for-traits.md): Render Order is a crucial aspect of Trait management, as it defines the sequence in which Traits are rendered. The order directly influences the overall image or media asset composition.
- [Get Started With a Pre-Made Trait Template](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/get-started-with-a-pre-made-trait-template.md)
- [Access Passes](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/get-started-with-a-pre-made-trait-template/access-passes.md)
- [Achievement Badges](/degen-engine/guides/trait-templates/get-started-with-a-pre-made-trait-template/achievement-badges.md)
- [Minting New Traits](/degen-engine/guides/minting-new-traits.md): Minting Traits is a highly privileged process that enables collection admin or authorized users to add new traits to NFTs.
- [Trait Minting Flows](/degen-engine/guides/minting-new-traits/trait-minting-flows.md): When minting new traits, collection administrators can choose between two different flows for assigning the traits to NFTs:
- [Gas Fee Options for Trait Minting](/degen-engine/guides/minting-new-traits/gas-fee-options-for-trait-minting.md): When minting new traits, collection administrators have the option to choose between two options for handling gas fees associated with minting the traits to NFTs.
- [Migrating Metadata for Existing NFT Collections](/degen-engine/guides/migrating-metadata-for-existing-nft-collections.md)
- [Updating the BaseURI](/degen-engine/guides/migrating-metadata-for-existing-nft-collections/updating-the-baseuri.md)
