Designer not properly loading Valo theme?

I just found an older video for valo designer

I went to create my own page w/ app style default starter for a base and it looks like this

Hi Zachary!

So if I understood correctly, you created a new Vaadin 8 app from the base archetype https://vaadin.com/start/framework/project-base, and created a new design with the Application Menu template? I tested the steps with a fresh project and Designer 4.0 on IntelliJ and got this result: https://d.pr/free/i/wJvRLU. Could you check that you have a designs.scss file, and that your styles.scss has both

@import "designs.scss";

and

@include vaadin-app-shell-template;?

I appreciate the response! Very helpful indeed. I will try this route, before I just made a fresh Spring Project, and attempted to add Vaadin in for a better UI experience.
