# Project structure

When you store your documents in Sitecore, the **Project panel** shows you this structure as a view of document components, images, and text.

A project is the representation of the structure of an InDesign document. The project structure of each InDesign project contains several elements and folders.

It is important to remember that:

- A project consists of an InDesign book (corresponding to the InDesign book (.indb)).
- A book can have one or more document items (corresponding to the InDesign documents (.indd)).
- A document can have one or more page items (corresponding to the InDesign pages).
- A page can have one or more snippets that contain page items, for example, text frames, images, rectangles, and so on, which correspond to InDesign objects.

To open the **Project** panel, click **Window**, **Sitecore**, **Project**.

> [!tip]
> When you save your document and pages, your settings are saved in Sitecore. Therefore, there is no need to save the document as a physical file.
