Before you start your transition to Kontent.ai, there are some decisions to be made. This section focuses on the high-level organizational unit in Kontent.ai – projects.You’ll find out what projects in Kontent.ai are, how to divide content inside them to allow easy content discovery and reuse, how to handle website-focused content, and what your options are for managing assets.
It all starts with a project
- 3 minutes
Every organization is different, and we at Kontent.ai know that. That’s why projects in Kontent.ai can be whatever you need them to be.This lesson gives you a general overview of what projects are and unveils the options you have to take the content organization to the next level.
How many projects to fit your needs?
- 5 minutes
One of the initial decisions of your Kontent.ai implementation is how to organize content in your project and whether you need to use more than one project.
Content organization at its finest
- 6 minutes
In a large organization, categorizing all content within a single project is beneficial. With your content strategically situated, people can find content easily, ensuring they can do their job efficiently and let everyone access only the content they need.With the proper content organization setup, you reduce distractions for your content teams and lessen the space for mistakes.
Set the space for your content
- 9 minutes
When you intend to publish for multiple channels, using a separate project for each channel may be tempting. However, channels share most of the content and a content model, so using multiple projects would make your content operations cumbersome, manual, and error-prone.This is where spaces come in, the missing piece to your headless puzzle.
Your content in the spotlight
- 7 minutes
Manage your website content visually without leaving Kontent.ai using Web Spotlight.Web Spotlight focuses on website management. It enables content creators to produce and update web content, add pages and subpages, and generally edit the elements displayed on your website. All this without the need to understand the project hierarchy or how the content is structured.
Decide your asset approach
- 3 minutes
When content is discussed, everyone often imagines just text. However, most content would be far from effective without a proper visual segment.Images, videos, and downloadable files like PDFs, are vital in presenting information online. These files are your assets.
