What is the three-level content hierarchy?

It is a design pattern consisting of Content Types (the blueprint), Content Parts (reusable groups of fields), and Content Fields (individual data elements) to ensure maximum flexibility.

Why is composition preferred over inheritance in CMS design?

Composition allows you to attach capabilities like SEO or tagging to any content type without creating rigid, brittle class hierarchies, making the system easier to maintain.

Is this applicable to all headless CMS platforms?

While inspired by modular patterns seen in platforms like Orchard Core, the principles of structured content and reusability apply to any headless CMS like Strapi, Contentful, or Sanity.

Can this skill help with API development?

Yes, it provides specific guidance on how content types should map to JSON API responses and GraphQL schemas for optimal front-end consumption.
