    2. search - which provides search API for text-based, user-interactive searching
    3. utils - which is a wide range of low-level utility methods and application concepts for Servoy solutions
    4. navigation - which provides ready to use single page navigation templates that are also extensible to allow for custom UI and even other UX patterns. (see related webinar below)

    Tip
    titleBest practices

    Choose a name for your solution that makes sense. This name will also become part of the URL when accessing it from the browser.

    It is recommended to only have one resource project per workspace to reduce confusion.


Advanced Settings

During the new solution creation an advanced settings panel is available in order to define some additional parameters to the new application
