Overview
This lesson is focused on how we can create new Pages in Wayfast. Like we explained in other lessons, Pages are the main unit to build User Interfaces in Wayfast. Even if we are building Web Applications or Mobile applications the life of our end users inside our app is going to happen between pages. You can think of a page as an application screen. Pages are made of controls, datasets and actions. The visual structure of a Wayfast page is defined by its layout.
How to create a new Page in a Project?
Once we generated a Project and built the structure connecting a database (DB), let’s work on create new pages and associate them to the project.

“Form” type is used to create screens or standard pages.
“Include” type is meant to create composite controls that can be embedded in other pages.
“Initial “Is Initial Page” checkbox allows you to set a page as the starting point of your application. This means this page will be the first to be displayed when you run your application.
If we move to focus on the “Layout” tab dropdown field, we can pick a layout to one of the layouts associated to the Project, this option will organize the controls that we add to this page.
