[edit] Conceptual Model
[edit] Concepts and Objects
1. Magnolia is completely Open Source .
2. The JSP/Servlet combines, but separates content from layout, allowing developers to redesign the whole Website without having to migrate any content.
3. Magnolia comes along with a comprehensive Tag Library, allowing developers to build complete templates without a line of Java code. And since Magnolia is Open Source, developers can extend the Tag Libraries any time.
[edit] operations
Mananolia is often used for storing, controlling, versioning, and publishing industry-specific documentation such as news articles, operators' manuals, technical manuals, sales guides, and marketing brochures. It allow the textual aspect of content to be separated to some extent from formatting. Because Magnolia automatically set default colour, fonts, or five different layouts.
[edit] prerequisites
It is better to have some knowledges about tomcat and jsp/servlet.
