Base Assets
Base Assets are page and asset examples available in every CMS site. They are are useful for a variety of purposes: use as a tool for understanding page layout, take a look at how sections work together, and use as a starting point for building new pages/projects - this allows for better consistency throughout a site and less work to get up and running.
Asset factories
Asset Factories allow users to implement new assets with certain configurations and/or content already in place. Asset Factories can be set up and used to create assets from scratch or be based on an existing pre-configured base asset. More on asset factories from Cascade CMS Knowledge Base.
If your site is missing any base assets or asset factories, the web team can create them for you to expedite your work. Reach out to the webteam and ask to have them set up for you.
