Section titled “Start Here”How This System Works
Section titled “How This System Works”This system is designed to provide editors and administrators with a structured approach to creating and managing content, using predefined blocks and approved layout patterns. Some block types are intended for specific page types, and some layouts are deliberately constrained to maintain consistency across websites.
This is intended to keep all websites aligned with the Polimi design system.
If something feels restricted or unavailable, that is often intentional.
