Life-cycle examples
Each example is one task, done both ways where both apply: in the Layouts editor (no code) and with templates in your own design extension. The facts behind them (screens, block options, settings, commands, file paths) were checked on a copy of the Fit & Healthy site; the step-by-step pages with screenshots are linked from each example.
| Phase | Examples | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Plan | 35 | Decide page types, layouts, menus, languages and who changes what, before building. |
| Build | 35 | Make the blocks, lists, galleries, columns and templates of the pages. |
| Launch | 33 | Map every page type, fill the menus, check the pages and the caches, keep a baseline. |
| Maintain | 35 | Change lists, banners, menus and campaigns week by week, and recover from mistakes. |
| Redesign | 34 | Change the look and the structure: overrides, new view and block types, new shared zones. |
| Migrate | 34 | Move layouts, settings and templates between installations, versions and sites. |
