In eXo Platform, you can create new content in any folders or directly in a CLV with Incontext Editing. However, to facilitate the content management, categories which are usually used to sort and organize documents make your desired searches more quickly. Also, creating content inside a category helps you manage and publish them effectively.
After creating a document, you should categorize it by adding it to a category. Otherwise, documents should be created right in a category and links to those documents will be automatically created in the category. In eXo Platform, categories are stored in JCR.
