# DAM Layout Actors

To configure your layouts, you need components and actors. These actors are JavaScript classes that define a certain behavior within the layout. For example Core Engine's ListActor contains data to be used by lists. There are some components or actors that consumes this data and there are some components or actors that add something to this data.

How the actors work can be very different. Some actors do nothing if they are not bound to another component or actor. Other actors do not support a connection to other components or actors.

Here is a list of DAM layout actors that are currently supported:
