Technical Overview
This document contains a technical introduction to Jahia.
It is designed to help readers with technical skills such as systems integrators, developers, testers or others get an introduction to the Technology inside Jahia. It is not meant to be a user’s guide or an administration’s guide. Please refer to the corresponding documents if that is what you are looking for.
Templating and Integration Guide
For template developers, Jahia 6.5 and now Jahia 6.6 are not just new versions of an already proven platform or a minor update free of consequences. Instead, from a developer’s point of view, they present all the characteristics of a restart from scratch. After years of relatively incremental improvements on templates development mechanisms, the Jahia team went back to the drawing board to offer users a rapid, robust, scalable, understandable and hopefully fun development environment.
This guide covers only the tip of the iceberg: the upper layers. This represents already a very large amount of new information and techniques to learn, and despite the fact that we won’t go deeper there is already an extremely rich range of possibilities that we invite you to discover in these upper layers.
Native Mobile Developer Guide

Portlet Guide
Jahia includes an embedded portal server, which is based on the Apache Pluto reference implementation of the JCR Portlet API specification. The goal of this implementation is to offer support for integrators who need to embed portlets on content pages. This means that any portlet API compliant application may be integrated with Jahia in a few simple steps.
