Building Blocks

Scaffolding an AEM Edge Delivery block involves creating a standard directory structure with a decorate.js file for JavaScript decoration and scoped CSS. This skill enforces standard file structures, naming conventions, and CDD-aligned guidelines to ensure consistency across new block development workflows.

Content Driven Development (CDD) for AEM blocks is a workflow validating prerequisites like test content and content models before implementation. This skill enforces CDD principles by validating content models and reusing established patterns during block structure creation and modification.

Adding JavaScript decoration and CSS styling to an AEM block requires implementing a decorate.js file and applying scoped CSS. This skill guides the decoration process by enforcing standardized guidelines for JavaScript decoration patterns and CSS styling within the block directory.

Yes, AEM Edge Delivery block development requires specific folder structures including optional scripts, references, and assets directories governed by SKILL.md frontmatter. This skill enforces these standardized directory structures and frontmatter requirements during block scaffolding.

Validating content models for AEM blocks is best achieved through Content Driven Development workflows that verify test content and content models before implementation. This skill validates content models during block creation and modification to ensure alignment with CDD principles and pattern reuse.

Documenting and testing AEM Edge Delivery blocks involves outlining testing strategies and maintaining documentation for both developers and authors. This skill enforces standardized testing strategies and documentation guidelines as integral components of the block development workflow.
