Overview of Pages

A page is a container for two types of components, portlets and books. Pages act as organizational constructs that control the placement of the components via layouts. There is no business logic associated with a page, making pages more of a definition than a first-class object. Similarly, pages are not navigational constructs, as they do not provide a mechanism for movement.

Pages are contained within books and pages can contain books, with nesting limited only by the practical limits of the system and good taste. This is illustrated by the following:

• Desktop
  • Book (default)
    • Page 1
      • Portlet A
      • Portlet B
    • Page 2
      • Portlet C
      • Book D
        • Page X
          • Portlet M
          • Portlet N
        • Page Y
      • Portlet O
      • Portlet P
