It consists of a query builder to define searches and display templates to style search results. The presentation demonstrates how to use the query builder and customize display templates with HTML instead of XSLT. It also discusses existing content searches, licensing, and how the Content Search Web Part enables new types of dynamic search-driven sites and pages.
