Tip: There are several
sample project templates available for DITA users that can be used as a starting point or for
inspiration. These sample project templates are found in the folder in the New
Project wizard:
- Sample DITA Project - This is a basic DITA project meant to help new users see how a DITA project is structured.
- Startup DITA Project - This is a startup DITA project that imposes a custom set of options (e.g. spell check settings and custom dictionaries), a custom DITA framework extension (e.g. custom new file templates. custom actions, custom CSS used for visual editing) and a folder structure for a DITA project according to best practices. Once created, the project contains a Readme.html file that explains all customizations and their benefits. If you plan to start your own DITA project using a version control system (such as Git), you can use this startup DITA project template to customize various aspects of DITA editing and share them with your team.
