Overview
Like we explained in other lessons, Pages are the main unit to build User Interfaces in Wayfast. Even if we are building Web 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?
Before creating a page we need to make sure we cover a few conditions. We need a Solution and a Project. We can create them from scratch or reuse an existing project. In this example we are going to reuse our “To-Do App” “Hello World” project. Once we have our Project we need to make sure we have a skin and layout set for this project. You can know more about this steps in the following sections:

In the “Layout” field we can choose one of the layouts associated to the Project. Layouts are visual “skeletons” to indicate Wayfast how to organize the controls we are going to add to this page.

Recap
In this lesson we learnt how to create new pages in our project. In the next lesson, we will work on how we can add visual controls to a page, connect it with a data source and add behavior to it through actions.
