CTAN mirrors should have a lot of packages prepared for various needs,
though I'm not aware of classes like the one you mentions. But I really
don't know. You'd have to search the archives.
Anyway, creating a class might be a bit difficult, as you need to know more
commands than you usually need as a normal user, but learning how to do it
is a good investment. LaTeX documentation has a document with a title like
"LaTeX for class and package writers", which should explain the basic
structure of writing a class/package. In many cases, you can create your own
class based on one of the standard classes, plus some additional LaTeX
commands. For more complex layouts, you will probably need TeX knowledge,
and much more time learning.
