Each Refined Site has its own structure. The structure is built using Categories and Jira projects. Each category and Jira project have their own landing page that can be modified.
Categories are added to sites with two purposes:
...
A landing page for the category where you can put content from different sources.
...
In addition to adding Jira projects, you can structure your sites using categories. By adding categories, you create landing pages that help your users navigate your site, and you structure the top menu navigation.
Categories are added to a specific site, and can be dragged-and-dropped between sites.
...
Refined sites work a bit differently, based on the applications you work with in Jira: Jira Service Management, Jira Core, and Jira Software.
