 <p><strong>How we model content, annotate it with standards like <a href="https://schema.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">schema.org</a>, and expose it cleanly is what will determine whether AI systems, search engines, and real people can actually understand and safely use and reuse what we publish.</strong></p>

 <p>Historically, the web was page-centric. We talked about “pages”, “layouts”, and “templates,” and our CMS interfaces mirrored that mental model. Editors thought in terms of layout and visual tweaks; developers thought in terms of routes and components.</p>
