How to design master page for a Team Site

Can we use Design Manager for master page design for a Team Site? Design manager link is available for Team site also. Should we use Design Manager for  a Team Site?

Otherwise what is the way to design master page for a Team Site?

Hi,

 You can use design manager for Team site... However to use Design manager for Team site, you need to enable SharePoint Publishing feature. 

_layouts/15/ManageFeatures.aspx?Scope=Site --> Activate SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure

/_layouts/15/ManageFeatures.aspx?Scope=Web --> Activate SharePoint Server Publishing

Please let us know if you need more help

Some org does not allow publishing feature within team site. only option in that case is design master page and layout page in SP designer and then move to vstudio to create a wsp file and deploy wsp in the production. Am I correct?

Is this same process to be followed in case of creating and moving layout page to the production also

Hi,

You can also create and design master page and page layout using SharePoint Designer and then save and set the master page as default master page for the team site collection in SharePoint Designer directly.
