Once you are ready to build your application you will likely encounter one or both of the fundamental types of obstacles that will slow your progress.
First, it may not be clear how certain tools are intended to be used. For this type of obstacle, please review the WX Wiki section entitled “Technical Manual”. This section catalogs each block, it's settings, and it's intended use.
Second, you may sometimes be unsure how to translate your business requirement into some combination of the 5 blocks and/or the 4 tools. This second type of obstacle can be much more challenging. For this, we have created a section “Building your Application” that includes “How-To” articles answering all of the most common questions we receive, grouped by feature type. It also includes actual development diaries, and best-practice or common practice examples.
We encourage you to study this section. If you come to understand and master each of the articles herein, there will not be much that you can't build in WorkXpress.
Would you like to see how other people went about building applications? The developers diary section features diaries of actual WorkXpress developers building actual applications. It also features a gallery of screenshots, videos and application descriptions that showcase best practices in application design and usability. Specific Best Practices in things like design and usability are also showcased here.
Use this section as a resource to get familiar with WorkXpress concepts and capabilities, but also to sharpen your understanding of what constitutes well-designed software.
There are many things some consider developer only activities…until now! Some things remain developers only, such as using the WorkXpress API to build integrations, and the CSS Skin Builder to customize the CSS style sheets.
Information about these things are found in the developer resources section.
Our goal is for you to be successful with your project. If you are having any issues, please take advantage of our excellent Support.
