5. Principles
• Integration without dependency
• User interface for content managers is
important
• Easy customization through overrides
and fallbacks
• So simple a designer could do it

7. Dynamic Relations
Integrate with
another app, if
available.
Or allow the
developer to
decide.
Either way,
implementation is
still simple.
