##Using Resources Importer to build Demo Site

Resources Importer is a tool that Liferay build to contain the raw content files and to be able to consistanly create site content along with a theme. If you have downloaded a 6.2 version of liferay and selected to include sample data, then you've seen the results of the resources importer. The Welcome Theme is included with the bundle: https://github.com/liferay/liferay-plugins/tree/6.2.x/themes/welcome-theme

The Resources Importer is a web plugin for liferay that will take content structured a particular way and create ether a site template or site based on that content.

Useful for Development

Let's say you are working on a Proof of Concept project for a client and there are several team memebers working to build out the site and make sure the Theme and UI work and look great. When developming locally
