Chapter 11: Finalizing the Website

In the last chapter, we finalized the building of our blog using Pimcore. Thanks to the capabilities of CMS and the data management engine, we were able to achieve complex goals such as creating custom unstructured content (the website's pages) and structured content (blog articles). It was a pleasant journey that makes us autonomous regarding the implementation of any kind of website or portal. Moreover, there are many additional steps that we may need to take to make our work reusable, extensible, and easy to deploy. As the title states, in this chapter we will learn how to finalize our website.

The points that we will cover will be the following:

  • Making a Multisite in Pimcore
  • Making the bundle installable
  • Using a multi-environment configuration
  • Using environment variables
