Which team member should a Content Author collaborate with to Introduce a new custom option to the component configuration?

To introduce a new custom option to the component configuration, a Content Author should

collaborate with an AEM Developer. AEM Developers are responsible for building and modifying

components, including adding new configuration options that meet specific content authoring

requirements. By working with an AEM Developer, a Content Author can ensure that the component

is customized according to the needed specifications and integrates well within the AEM ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities of an AEM Developer in Component Customization:

Component Configuration and Development: AEM Developers can create or modify component

dialogs and configuration settings to introduce custom options as required by content authors.

Understanding of HTL and AEM Best Practices: Developers ensure that custom configurations adhere

to AEM best practices and standards, including the use of HTL and other AEM frameworks.

Collaboration for Enhanced Authoring Experience: By working closely with content authors,

developers can tailor component configurations to enhance usability and support specific content

creation workflows.

AEM documentation on component development outlines how AEM Developers can modify or

create new component configurations. Collaborating with developers ensures that custom

component needs are addressed properly, leveraging their technical expertise for optimal

implementation.
