Laioutr at a glance: organisation, project, environments

# Organisation, project and environments

10 min

This lesson lays the groundwork: the organisation holds team and licences, a project is one storefront, and every storefront starts with the live environment main, joined by environments such as dev and stage. It adds the picture of the data flow from the connected systems through Orchestr to the section in Studio.

## Key takeaways

- Organisation, project and environment are the three levels in Cockpit.
- main is live, dev and stage serve development and acceptance.
- Orchestr connects backends and sections.

  The organisation is the company account with members, roles and billing, a project is one storefront or website inside it, and environments are independent copies of a project, starting with the live environment main.

  A project is created in the organisation settings under Projects and starts with the live environment main. Further environments such as stage or dev are created in the project under Environments as a copy of an existing one.

  Every project starts with the main environment, which is the live storefront. Further environments such as stage or dev run beside it as separate copies with their own address, pages, apps and deployments until their work is promoted to main.

  Studio defines how a page is built, and Orchestr fetches the data for it on the server from connected systems such as shop, CMS or ERP and combines it into one unified data model.
