The Column Builder

This page of the user guide will help Sitecore Contributors add a Column Builder Component. The Column Builder is a component that allows editors to organize content similar to how it would appear in a table. Layouts containing columns display content side-by-side, which is commonly used on websites, in magazines, in newspapers and more.
