Description
Adobe Experience Manager Guides (AEM Guides) is the ideal tool for a Component Content Management System (CCMS). A successful CCMS enables us to collaboratively create content, easily access and reuse modular content, and publish content to multiple channels including print, PDF, and websites. AEM Guides was formerly named XML Documentation for Adobe Experience Manager or simply XML Documentation for AEM.
Studying with SmartDoc is the smart choice because we are the only Adobe Certified Instructor (ACI) who has also implemented our own CCMS with AEM Guides. This is a hands-on course where you will experience AEM Guides by creating topics and ditamaps and publishing SmartDoc Student manuals like the ones you see here. Other trainers will show you PowerPoint slides, we will enable you to experience a working CCMS built on AEM Guides.
AEM Guides extends AEM by providing a full suite of visual XML Editing tools. DITA stands for Darwin Information Typing Architecture and is an open standard managed by OASIS, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards. The DITA specification enables creation and management of topic-oriented information by defining a set of document types and a set of rules. AEM Guides enables us to easily create and collaborate on DITA assets with easy-to-use WYSIWYG online web editors. You will learn how to install and configure AEM Guides in this class.
