Welcome to your first Alchemy CMS page

How to get started.

First of all you should read about Alchemy and it's architecture in the guidelines.

The most important things to know about Alchemy are elements and page layouts.

Elements:

With Alchemy you can split pages into content parts, elements. These elements can be defined out of several base content types: ingredients. The ingredients are:

• Text - A single line of text
• Richtext - A TinyMCE powered formatted text block
• Picture - A reference to an image
• Html - HTML embed code
• Select - A selection of values
• Boolean - A checkbox

Elements get defined in config/alchemy/elements.yml.

Page types:

You can define several types of pages, called page layouts. You can assign elements to page layouts and control how elements and the page of a certain layout behave.

Page layouts get defined in config/alchemy/page_layouts.yml.
