Static to Editable template Migration

Question

I am migrating from static templates to editable templates using AEM Modernization Tool but  my static template code is in JSP. So, do I need to create a new code base for editable templates or is it compatible to JSP as well? Please guide me, how I can proceed on this.

Hi @7487585

Yes, the best practice would be to migrate from JSP based static templates to editable templates based on HTL.

The WCM Core Page component (latest version) should be your new base component.
- You can refer the aem-guides-wknd project for more details and structure - https://github.com/adobe/aem-guides-wknd/blob/main/ui.apps/src/main/content/jcr_root/apps/wknd/components/page/.content.xml
Also highly recommend going through this skill exchange video for insights into things to be considered for migration - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/events/the-skill-exchange-recordings/aem/aug2023/developer-track/migrate-to-aemcs

Hope this is helpful. Please reach out to the community for any additional questions.

Thanks

Narendra
