I made a few minor rewording changes, and some style preferences, as I thought I'd be able to get this merged today. But, testing this out just before, I realised that we don't have an obvious way to not be the admin in the demo app to use this functionality. Any ideas on how we could do that? |

Thank you. To test it, you can switch to a non-admin user by clicking the "Become" button in each row on the customer list page. |

Hah! I totally missed that. I'm glad someone knows the application better than I do after maintaining it for not far off a decade 😂 |

I have added a guide on how to switch templates using the variant option.
http://localhost:3000/guides/switching_template_with_the_variant_option.md
Additionally, I have added actual usage examples to the sample application.
I created two examples: one for the template used in the Dashboard and another for non-Dashboard screens. The display changes depending on whether the user is logged in as an Admin or another user.
