Habitat is an example Sitecore solution built on the Helix architecture principles. It is designed to show how a Helix-based solution can be architected, and to demonstrate how tooling can be used to accomplish publishing, serialization, and testing. Habitat is not intended to be a starter solution, or as a recommendation of tools for your solutions.
The architecture and methodology focuses on:
- Simplicity - A consistent and discoverable architecture
- Flexibility - Change and add quickly and without worry
- Extensibility - Simply add new features without steep learning curve
