Custom authoring interfaces
We can use the Web Content Manager API and remote action parameters to create customized authoring interfaces specifically for the content creators.You may not want to use an authoring portlet as the user interface for all the users. In some cases it may be better to create a custom authoring interface using the Web Content Manager API and remote action parameters. For example, we could create a very simple content authoring interface for a specific content authoring team.
Custom launch pages
We can configure an authoring portlet to use a launch page of the own design instead of the default user interface. A custom launch page can either be a JSP or HTML file. We use remote actions to call different views and functions from with the authoring portlet's user interface. We can also use the web content API to add other functions to the launch page. Once you have created a custom launch page, you then configure your authoring portlet to use the custom launch page instead of the default authoring portlet user interface.
Remote actions
Remote actions are used in the query string of a URL to trigger actions from the Web Content Manager application. We can use remote actions to add standard WCM functions to a custom user interface.
