Development processes | HCL Digital Experience

In addition to being a package of ready-to-use templates, Content Template Catalog also embodies a new pattern for site development that is based around page templates and microsites.

While Content Template can often be used only during the initial build phase of a site, it might also be used as the basis for a self-serve templating infrastructure. In this kind of environment, you need a development process for building templates.

For the Content Template software developers, what made this solution possible was the Portal Solution Installer. It allowed the developers to deploy applications, themes, pages, portlets, and content assets from a single package. This installer became the basis for the source control and build process.
