    BASE AND CONCEPT

    In a very single way, one could say that any application we develop will be based on data and views derived from them.
    The data will be mostly data organized in tables, but we also have unorganized data, associated to variables, temporary or permanent. A simple example of data organized can be a description of an item, which will be organized in a table of items and has a position on the application, identical to the description of another article. An example of an unorganized data may be the VAT rate by default. We may have this value associated with a variable load at the beginning of the application for later use.
    The views are basically the screens and documents. Consider screens, those presentations capable of interacting with the user, typically by capturing data from a keyboard or a scanner. A document is instead a non-interactive data view.
    The link between all of this is the configuration or programming. This is the component that will enable us to shape the application off at the above concepts.
    This is what makes AppDesigner, the application to put these concepts into something useful. For this we have the following utilities:

- File structure to define the files or tables that use the application.
- Design of screens, to define the interactive views of the application.
- Design document to define the non interactive views.
- Scripts edition, for thatwe can not do with the above utilities.
