Content Element
Introduction
Content elements serve as the foundational units of content within Tailor, residing within a higher-level abstraction known as Content Containers. One example might be a rich text editor block (Content Element) residing within a simple Section container (Custom Container), where Section is just a plain array of Content Element blocks.
Tailor out of the box comes with a variety of Content Elements, each serving a unique purpose in the authoring ecosystem. Some examples are:
- Rich text editor
- Video Content Element

Developing New Content Elements
One of Tailor's strengths is its extensibility. New content elements can be developed, installed, and configured to expand the platform's capabilities.
The extensibility of content elements within Tailor significantly enriches the platform's content capabilities, offering content creators unparalleled flexibility and creativity in crafting content. Custom content elements can be developed to address niche topics or present information in innovative ways, offering flexibility in how content is delivered and consumed. As content needs and technology evolve, Tailor's extensible approach ensures that the platform can adapt and grow.
For those interested in developing new content elements, Tailor provides a Content Element Kit. This Kit includes documentation and tools to streamline the development process, ensuring that new elements are compatible and easily integrated into the Tailor ecosystem.
