Remarks

In Dynamicweb, product categories are named groups of custom fields attached to products (e.g. "Dimensions", "Technical Specifications"). Each category is represented by this view model and exposes its fields as a keyed dictionary of FieldValueViewModel instances, where the key is the field system name.

In Razor templates, iterate Fields to render all fields in a category:

@foreach (var category in Model.Product.CategoryFields)
{
    <h3>@category.Name</h3>
    @foreach (var field in category.Fields)
    {
        <p>@field.Value.Name: @field.Value.Value</p>
    }
}
