YouTrack Standalone 2018.2 Help

Project Templates

When you create a new project in YouTrack, you select a template that is used to configure the project. The settings for each project template are pre-configured. This means that you can create a project and start working with it right away. After you create the project, you can modify the pre-configured settings at any time to match the actual workflow and process for your team.

The templates themselves are read-only. You cannot edit the default configuration. The ability to create your own templates is not currently supported in YouTrack.
