On this page, you will find the default Document Types in Umbraco. If you want to use these document types, you can create them in the Settings section.
Creating a Document Type (without a template) defines the content structure and fields that can be used across different content items. You might use document types without templates to create consistent, structured content that doesn't require a predefined page layout. For example blog posts or product listings.

Element Types are created using the same workflow as regular Document Types but usually contain fewer properties. You can also create Element Types as part of configuring a Block Grid or Block List Data Type.

To get started with compositions, you have to create the needed Document Types as described above. Later you can take advantage of nesting and use compositions by clicking on "**Compositions**..." option on the Document Type editor. Here you will be able to select the Document Types you want to use as compositions for the current Document Type. The fields of the selected compositions will then be available on the current Document Type.
If you create 2 compositions that contain some common properties it is only possible to pick one of the compositions in a Document Type. If preferred, those compositions that cannot be used can be marked as hidden by checkmarking the `Hide unavailable options`.
