CompositePack is a product that allows the Plone Manager to build composite pages by manually aggregating archetype content from his site.

Composition of content is made through a pseudo WYSIWYG user interface : the design view. A composite page has a layout which defines its structure. Composite elements are displayed through viewlets.

Both layouts and viewlets are acquired from the skin, which implies they are customizable.

Layouts and viewlets are registered through the composite_tool in ZMI (see below how to register them).
