# Content Model Visualization

ZingGrid follows a strict content model, which defines which tags are allowed to be placed inside of each other. Below is a visualization of the parent-child relationship between components along with the distinction between "manual" and "generated" components. Manual components are tags that developers are allows to place. Meanwhile, generated components are tags that are internally placed and should not be added by developers.

Please view on a desktop.

Visualization only available for window sizes greater than 770px.
