Creating content tiles for cross-browsing on collection pages in the Dawn theme is possible without a 3rd party app, but it might require a bit of custom coding.

And when it comes to adding content tiles on collection pages, I think it’s all about making things look clean and easy to navigate for the users. You want your collection pages to be visually appealing, but also functional. So, organizing them in a way that users can easily find what they’re looking for is key. Personally, I think grouping similar products together works best.

You could also try highlighting a few top picks or bestsellers with larger tiles, so those stand out. It’s about creating a smooth shopping experience. If you need inspiration or a tool to help with the design, silkplm.com has some great ideas on how to organize these kinds of pages.
