What you get

Folder-based repository traversal

Traverse your Hippo repository: on the left pane you will see the list of child folders, on the center area you will instead have a list of child documents, with title, summary and image (when available).

Multi-language content navigation

This test site is configured for showing everything in English by default: however, you can change the browsing language at any time by clicking on the desired flag.

Search

Full-text search is performed by empowering native JCR-SQL2 query language.

On-the-fly PDF generation

PDF files can be generated upon request: just click on the PDF icon on the top right corner.

The actual content of each PDF file can be of course fine-tuned and customized: the content provided with this demo is just a bare sample!
