The Sitecore Interface 

Sitecore has introduced advanced editing components. These advanced components in Sitecore have a different set up and functionality compared to previous components. Most edits that could be made with the previous components can still be made but in different ways. In addition, some of the previous functionality remains the same. This page of the user guide will help Sitecore Contributors become familiar with the updated Sitecore Editor Interface.
