The Jive Sport intranet portal illustrates the concepts of using Multi-Channel Server. The Jive demonstration is written using XDIME 2 markup. Policies are available for a PC and Smartphone versions of the site. The project contains a home page, demonstrating a use of fundamental elements of the MCS-based web application, such as image policies, layouts, and themes. The Jive sub-pages focus on the use of the XDIME 2 markup groups, such as form elements and conditional markup.
