The manifest is composed of four major sections:

1. Metadata: Data describing the content package as a whole.

2. Organizations: Contains the content structure or organization of the learning resources making up a stand-alone unit or units of instruction. A definition of sequencing intent can be associated with the content structure.

‌3. Resources: Defines the learning resources bundled in the content package.

4. (sub)Manifest(s): Describes any logically nested units of instruction (which can be treated as stand-alone units).
