DEPRECATED
This workbench definition has been deprecated since Magnolia 6.0. It is part of the Magnolia 5 UI framework.
For the updated implementation, see Workbench definition for Magnolia 6 UI instead.
Workbench is a view that displays content items in a workspace. It is part of the content app framework, typically defined in the browser subapp. The workbench contains a list of content views. Common view types are tree, list and thumbnail.
