Chapter 3. Defining and Creating Content Classes

In this chapter, we will look at what the content class is for eZ Publish, and how to create and manage it. We will define all of the content classes needed by our site to create articles and staff profile pages.

Before opening a browser and starting to create new content classes, we have to take a few minutes to learn what a content class is, how eZ Publish manages the content, and how this content will help us in our work. We also need to decide what we will want to publish on the site by defining all of the appropriate content classes.
