Developers and marketers alike understand the challenges of content change management. Marketers often use familiar tools like Microsoft Word, leading to cumbersome integration into CMS systems. This results in frustrating back-and-forth, manual copy-pasting, and delays. But it doesn't have to be this way.
Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) empowers marketers to create and edit web pages directly within familiar tools such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs. Headings, lists, images, fonts, and videos transfer seamlessly to the website. For more complex content, marketers can utilize tables as Blocks – reusable components that serve as blueprints for web pages, incorporating elements like sliders, breadcrumbs, and call-to-actions.
AEM Edge Delivery Services further streamlines the process for both marketers and developers. Imagine marketers publishing directly from their source documents without compromising developer control. This is now a reality.
Getting started with AEM Edge Delivery Services is easy, thanks to the comprehensive AEM Live tutorial. The tutorial guides you through setting up your development environment (installing Node.js and Git), cloning the AEM project repository, configuring AEM instances, and setting up your IDE. You'll learn to leverage Adobe Boilerplate, a high-performance project template that optimizes web pages for excellent Core Web Vitals, achieving impressive Lighthouse scores from day one. The tutorial also provides detailed instructions on creating and managing Blocks using vanilla JS and CSS, allowing for the rapid construction of dynamic, SEO-optimized web pages.
Standardized developer workflows within AEM are critical for improving content management and delivery efficiency. Best practices and streamlined processes lead to faster project completion, higher content quality, and enhanced operational efficiency. Real-world examples highlight AEM's ability to significantly boost productivity and create superior digital experiences, cementing its position as a leading content management solution.
Next time you face the challenge of integrating marketer-created content, consider AEM as a solution to streamline the process and improve collaboration between developers and marketers.
