Islandora aims to preserve as much of FedoraCommons underlying flexibility as possible, and to create a framework where users can create custom content models and ingest/display behaviours. Unlike earlier versions of Islandora, Islandora 7 Content Models are much smaller objects that are built (along with object behaviours/transformations) directly into code. This means that Islandora customization that involves creating a new content model and behaviours, or a new viewer, means writing Islandora code. Thankfully there are a number of resources available on the community page to help you get started. We also recommend reviewing the documentation available for developers on the Islandora Github wiki.
