Introduction

Consumer Applications are applications that use CMS content.

Consumer Application overview

A Consumer Application is an application that consumes Forrit One content using the SDK.

When a content editor publishes a new Release to a specific Consumer Application it becomes available as content that can be retrieved using the SDK.

Consumer Applications consume Release content

The following diagram shows how:
