Key Concepts
Content Resource Libraries use a two-level hierarchy:- Collection — A named group of related resources. Each collection has a name, slug, optional description, and optional cover image. Collections are displayed as cards and can be reordered.
-
Resource — An individual content item within a collection. Each resource has a title, optional description, and optional cover image. Resources can be of the following types:
- External URL — A link to external content (articles, videos, documentation, tools, etc.)
- Calendar Event — A reference to a past Tightknit event, useful for linking recordings and recaps.
- Pages - internal pages within the companion site
- Embedded external pages - external pages embedded within the companion site
