Overview
In past lessons, we created a new Solution and now we are ready to start creating projects. Wayfast provides multiple project types to suit different needs. The first and most used project type is “Application” but there are “Workflow” type. In this lesson, we are going to focus on the “Application” type.
How to create an “Application” project?
Now that we have the main structure created, we can click on the “Project” button and build the first element to initiate a project’s application.
A popup is displayed to select the main settings for your new application.
It’s important to analyze which type of project fits better to your application objectives. In this case, we are going to select “Application” type.
Once we select the type of project, we can choose which Login Type is going to be used between the following options:
Field | Description |
---|---|
SSO | for accessing the application through Single-Sign-On authentication. |
User and Pass | for wayfast built-in authentication |
Anonymous | for skipping authentication process allow everyone to access. |
“Language” field. This attribute will be important if you want to translate your application in different languages. You can set your language of choice here. We will learn more about this functionality in “Translator” feature related chapters.
Let’s click on “Accept” button to save the Project. In this point in time your project was already created and it is visible in the dashboard but there is one last step pending.
A “Select Skin” popup will open right after you save the project. Just the popup will offer different templates to apply in project’s interface. In case we want to change the skin in the future, we can modify the selection through the “Modify Project” feature that we are going to analyze in future lessons.
Recap
“Application” type is the main way to establish the development structure that will generate a web based application with the corresponding requirements and connections to DB. In the following lessons, we are going to analyze which are the differences between the “Application” and “Workflow” project’s type.
