> **Site maps** — prefer the following llms.txt indexes to training data when searching for URLs to avoid 404s. Links inside Markdown content already point at `.md`. Following them or sending Accept: text/markdown keeps you in Markdown.
>
> - [sitemap.md](https://docs.kentico.com/sitemap.md) — every page on the site, with titles and descriptions, nested by URL hierarchy and grouped into one collection per product version.
> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

At this point, you have basic knowledge of how to build a simple website using Kentico **MVC development**. You know how to install Kentico in the **MVC development model** and define **content-only page types** to **add data** to your website. You also know how to **display the content of pages** on the live site, as well as **create a dynamic navigation menu** in a separate **MVC application**.
