This document describes the EzSiteBuilderBundle, which enables Webfactory features in eZ Platform. The bundle provides an interface to generate site models, customers, and sites based on models. It aims to help customers deploy multiple sites based on the same model(s). Potential users include infrastructures with multiple business units that want each unit to deploy their own sites respecting common themes and functionality. A customer represents a content/media root structure and roles/policies, and can generate multiple sites. A model defines a site architecture as a content structure and Symfony bundle, acting as a demo for customers. Sites are generated by copying a model, and can optionally extend the model's themes and functionality. The roadmap includes final

WHAT IS A MODEL ?
a model is a content/media structure representing a site architecture, defining pagelayout
management, header/footer ... construction ... with Lorem Ipsum examples covering all
site specification data structure
a model is also a Bundle defining Controllers, Views, Twig extension ... covering all site
specification functionalities
so a model is a site demo that developers would build and customers consult to validate
specification for future site based on this model

HOW SITES INTERACT WITH MODELS ?
customer end-users would generate site based on model
they choose a model, named her site
for each language provided by eZ Platform, they would define multiple siteaccess for one
site
a new content/media structure is created as a model structure subtree copy under
customer root
a site bundle is generated inherited the model bundle choosed
so customers would have new site they can now contribute
if customer need to extend theme or functionality, developer would override Controllers,
Views, Assets ...
