# Fresh framework (retired archive)

> Storefront documents the Blocks framework, the Site Editor app, website templates, and commerce integrations.
> Studio documents the extensible platform: context, tasks, sandboxes, connectors, and MCP Apps.
> Blocks 7.x is the released default. Blocks Next is an unreleased proposal; Fresh and the former admin are retired.
> Site Editor publishing follows Git changes, a pull request, review or merge, and the configured deployment. Runtime content reload APIs are separate delivery capabilities.
> Respect availability labels. Do not describe preview, planned, or in-build APIs as available.

Any documentation page is available as Markdown by appending `.md` to its URL.
