Flexible content model: the foundation of personalized display
The core of AnQi CMS lies in its 'flexible content model'.This means that you are not limited to fixed "article" or "product" types, but can customize various content models according to your actual business needs.For example, you can create a "blog" model for blog articles, a "product" model for e-commerce goods, and even a "position" model for recruitment information.
When creating these models, you can define unique fields for each model.For example, an "article" model may require fields such as "author", "publish date", "keywords", etc.And a "product" model may need fields such as "price", "inventory", "brand", "product parameters", etc.These custom fields are not only convenient for you to enter information in the background management, but more importantly, they provide rich data sources for the personalized display on the front end.
Template customization: controlling the way content is presented
AnQi CMS uses a template engine syntax similar to Django, which allows front-end developers or operators with some coding experience to highly customize every page of the website. All front-end display logic is controlled by template files, which are usually stored in/templatedirectory.
