Using the Featured Products Section
The Turbo theme includes a 'Featured Products' section which is a quick and easy way for you to highlight specific products and allow your customers to view (and purchase) an item directly from your homepage!
The 'Featured Products' section allows you to display multiple products and alternate their order for a 'checkered' layout. You can pick and choose which product information you'd like to show, configure settings for each product's gallery, and even display Shopify's 'dynamic checkout buttons'.
In order to set up the Featured Products, click into Customize (your Theme Editor) > Sections > Add Section > Featured Products.

Section Settings
The section settings determine the look and layout of this section!
Wide Display
You can choose to enable 'wide display' so this section will spread out the full width of the screen. Otherwise, the section will sit in a 'container' on the homepage and not span the full width:
Stagger products left and right
If you're uploading more than one featured product, you have the option to stagger them which alternates the order of product image and text:
Enable product gallery popup
Once you have your featured product chosen, if you check off the 'enable product gallery popup' setting, on hover, your cursor will turn into a magnifying glass (with a + sign). When you click the product image, a lightbox will open up allowing you to click through the product gallery images:
Show arrows on product gallery
You can enable the 'show arrows on product gallery' setting to add arrows on top of the product image on hover which will allow you to click through the product gallery images:

Enable product gallery slideshow/Gallery transition
The 'enable product gallery slideshow' setting will allow your product gallery to become a slideshow that automatically transitions through the images. The 'gallery transition' setting setting allows you to choose which transition style you'd like for your slides within the slideshow. You can choose from: 'Slide' or 'Fade':
Show Vendor
You can enable the 'show vendor' setting if you'd like to display the product's vendor (which is the brand or manufacturer). You can add vendors to your products though their product admin pages under Organization > Vendors.
