How To Build A Page

These simple steps will help you plan and build your page.

Know what kind of page you want to build.

It is easier to build a page in the AEM authoring environment if you have an idea of what the final page should look like. An outline or a simple sketch will help you organize your content before you start moving components around in the AEM editor.

Choosing the right template.

Each template is designed for a specific type of page. You will want to make sure you are using the correct template for the content you are presenting. Review the template types here. Review the template types here.

Responsive Layout 

You will use the AEM layout editor to create the responsive page layouts. To create the standard two column layouts you will need to adjust the size of your components for the various breakpoints or device sizes.

PRO TIP

If you resize components from the right they will stack into place.

 

Adding additional components.

Components are the building blocks of your pages. You can use this guide to learn about each component and its usage. Review the component types here.
