Texts are built in a data tree structure. To guide you through the structure, we'll slowly build a table of contents that represents the text.
To begin a text, start with your first page. This page contains all the metadata for your text. Learn how to begin a text. Remember, every text needs to be in a collection.
Once you've created your first page, you can add sections to that first page by inserting more pages: these are child pages of the section. In the example below, we've added three pages (Introduction, Section A, and Conclusion) to the Main Title page. Learn how to add sections to texts.
What happens if you want subsections on a certain page, say Section A? Just add more 'child pages' under Section A, in the same way you inserted Section A into the Main Title.
You can continue building your text this way indefinitely. This can give you complex structures, like the partial table of contents below from a real example. Remember: you can only have one main, top-level page.
