This component is used to render the standard and custom metadata of generic content item (called a _node_) stored in Alfresco Content Services. With the usual approach "learning by doing", you will see here some practical examples you might find useful in your own applicatioin. As a starting point, we will use and customize the [Alfresco Content App](https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-content-app).

All the `preset` configurations are defined in one single configuration file named `app.config.json`, stored in the `src` folder of the project. The `app.config.json` file contains all the configurations of the ADF application, including a section named `content-metadata`, which is used to store the `presets`. The following JSON excerpt gives an example of configuration for the `preset` named `custom`:

"content-metadata": {

"presets": {

This configuration will show all the listed properties prefixed with `exif:*` in a group titled with the value of the variable `APP.CONTENT_METADATA.EXIF_GROUP_TITLE` for the aspect `exif:exif`. Since this aspect is not related to the node, the component will simply ignore the rendering and nothing will be displayed for these properties. In other words: the aspects to be displayed are calculated as an intersection of the preset's aspects and the aspects related to the node.

### Using the `my-preset` configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Now that the `my-preset` configuration is defined, let's use it in a view of the ADF application. As an example, let's edit the files view, stored in the `src/app/files` folder. Specifically, let's change the [`files.component`](../../demo-shell/src/app/components/files/files.component.ts)`.html` file as follows:
