This comprehensive 3-day course is aimed at developers who wish to gain in-depth knowledge of developing with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM). The course covers the fundamental aspects of AEM, including project preparation, component configuration, content creation, client-side libraries, testing and debugging. Participants will gain hands-on experience with the core features of AEM and best practices for creating powerful, responsive, and maintainable AEM-based solutions.

Training schedule

Day 1: Introduction to AEM and project preparation

The course begins with an introduction to the AEM interface and architecture. Participants learn how to find their way around the system and which central components drive AEM. The AEM Archetype, which is used to set up new projects, is also introduced on the first day. Participants will also learn how to configure AEM components via dialogs and how data is stored in AEM.

• Introduction to the AEM interface and architecture
• Creating a new project with the AEM Archetype
• Configuration of components via dialogs
• Understanding data storage in AEM

Day 2: Rendering components, editable templates and client-side libraries

On the second day, the focus is on rendering components. Participants will learn how components are rendered on the server side in AEM and the advantages of HTL (HTML Template Language) compared to JSP. The course also covers client-side libraries in AEM, including how to implement and manage custom client libraries. The training day ends with advanced topics such as editable templates, responsive grid in AEM and reusable content.Rendering of components on the server side with HTL
