About Jahia

What is Jahia?

The Jahia platform helps you create and edit digital content, manage the channels and sites where you deliver that content, and collect data as your customers engage with your content. You can use this data to customize and improve your content and create truly personalized digital experiences for each of your customers.

Creating and publishing content

Jahia offers two primary paths to creating and publishing content.

• Traditional
  Traditional authoring and publishing focuses on building and developing pages for each digital channel, rather than creating modular content items that can be reused across multiple channels.  Page authoring relies on Page Composer to create content and layout sites.
  Page Composer is built for users who want to work with prebuilt templates and themes or who are creating standalone pages and sites.
  For more information, see Overview of Page Composer.
• Headless
  Headless publishing focuses on modularity and flexibility, it relies on reuse of content across your entire digital ecosystem through APIs. In the Jahia platform, you use jContent to develop your content base and ensure that it meets your dynamic channel needs.
  Standalone jContent is ideal for users interested in streamlining how and where content displays across digital channels. For example web, tablets, phone, and IoT.
