Rendering

Displaying all your data

#Overview

There are quite a few technologies involved here. So take your time to understand them before you build your site. In the previous section you've learned everything about the Content Repository and what makes it so special.

Structured content by itself has no direct value. The advantages come to play at a later stage: during rendering. You have already defined several NodeTypes but never determined what they will look like. To facilitate this flexibility we can not make any useful assumptions about your content.

We'll start by explaining everything you need to know about the Fusion configuration language. Then you will learn how to get data from the CR into your template. Finally you can decide between two flavors of templating languages: AFX (like JSX, recommended) and Fluid (like classical template engines).
