Keep meaning portable and implementation details explicit. Explore JSON contracts, semantic HTML, presentation layers, and publishing clients in your preferred stack.
Inside this collection
Content structure and delivery code solve different problems. A record describes what the publication knows and has approved; an adapter translates that record for a destination. This collection keeps those responsibilities separate while examining the places they meet: validation, transformations, state, and error reporting. Language-specific routes are planning guides, not downloadable SDKs.
Your reading path
Begin by documenting the fields, body representation, and permitted state transitions for one content type. Use the JSON contract guide to build valid and invalid examples. Then choose the language route relevant to your application and write a dry-run plan that can explain the intended action without making a public change.
