Is there a standard site structure format? The use of this would be for export and import into a CMS or framework to define the urls, content, metadata for a website. Something tool agnostic would be the goal.
JSON, YAML, XML, whatever. Maybe something like:
{
'baseurl': 'http://example.com',
'site': [
{'slug': '/', 'title': 'ExampleCo. Inc.'},
{'slug': '/about', 'title': 'About Our Company'},
{'slug': '/services', 'title': 'Our Services'},
{'slug': '/products', 'title': 'Products'},
{'slug': '/products/purchase', 'title': 'Purchase Products Now'},
{'slug': '/products/downloads', 'title': 'Downloads'},
{'slug': '/contact', 'title': 'Contact Us'}
]
}
My thinking is that it would allow you to quickly populate a content management system or framework with a generic site navigational structure.
Does something like this exist?
