It is quite easy actually:

  • An aspect is simply a collection of properties that can optionally get added to a content of a specific type. (ie: an aspect called webable for content that can be published to the web, with one single property indicating if it is already published true/false and one other with the date of last publication)

  • An association is a link or a relationship between two content types (ie: link a generated pdf file to the original docx file/template)
