Workspaces

A Workspace is an editor interface designed for managing specific entity types, such as content, media, or members. Workspaces allow users to interact with and modify data in a structured way, whether through a single view or multiple interconnected views. Workspaces are where you interact with and manage specific content or settings.
For example: If you want to edit a page or create new content, you would go into the "Content" workspace. This workspace will provide you with a tree view, a content editor, media browser, and other specific tools to help you manage content.
Key Concepts
Entity Type: Each workspace is based on an entity type (for example content, media, member, and so on).
Unique Key: Workspaces are identified by a unique string key.
Draft State: Most workspaces maintain a draft state, allowing changes to be made before saving to the server.
Workspace Context: This context enables communication between different components within the workspace.
Workspace Views: A workspace can consist of a single or multiple views.
Workspace Actions: Actions that can be performed within a workspace, such as saving or publishing.
Setting Up a Custom Workspace
To configure a custom workspace, implement the UmbWorkspaceElement interface:
interface UmbWorkspaceElement {
entityKey: string;
entityType: string;
views: WorkspaceView[];
