This feature allows you to set-up an information library which can be accessed by the app users. It acts as a knowledge base wherein you can put any data that needs to be shared with the app users. The information is systematically arranged in folders which contain pages. These can be added, deleted or modified at any point of time. All the folders and pages have two possible states: Offline and Live. As the name suggests, offline resources won't be visible to app users.
Organisations generally use this feature to
give information about themselves
