General Interface is an open source project hosted by the Dojo Foundation

Creating a New Project

In this section, you create a new General Interface project. A new project folder is created in the workspace/JSXAPPS directory, and all application-specific files are created and saved in this folder. The workspace is the directory that contains your projects, custom add-ins, custom prototypes, and your user settings for General Interface Builder.

  1. Start General Interface Builder and choose a workspace if you haven't yet. If this is the first time you're starting General Interface Builder, see Starting General Interface Builder.
  2. Choose Project > New Project or click the Create a New Project link in the Welcome screen (Help > Welcome Screen) to open the new project wizard.
  3. Choose General Interface Application as the project type, and click Next.

A new project is loaded in the browser window. Two default, empty files are open in the central work area.

While building this sample application, all project data is stored locally in browser memory. The application is not automatically saved to the file system. Save the project before you close or refresh the browser window. If you don't save the project, the data is lost.

For more information on projects, see About General Interface Builder Projects.
