Demo visual builder application is the vbcs application to be

worked on
 
VBCS - cloud based , application is developed in oracle cloud
and also the default runtime env is cloud itself
 
Our data can be stores anywhere,
We access it via REST web service
 
VBCS application - contains web user interface , connected to
vbcs BO and / or service connections
 

 
Front end:
JS and HTML , using open source ojet components;
 
Back end:
Involves VBCS BO's and service connections
when we create vbcs Bos , VBCS will automatically store
them in db cloud service that is associated with our vbcs
instance ( hence no worry abt creating tables and indexes
 
Tables in db are presented to vbcs application as rest web
services
 
Creating first vbcs application:
1) create BO , as soon as u create the BO , it opens in new
tab
2. Create web page ( so that user can interact with task
data)
a. Start page is main-start ( opens in new tab once the
web app is created)
b. Icons below the main- start tab heading are puzzle
icon - shows / collapse component palette , folder
tree icon- page structure, on right side box with
arrow icon- shows/ collapses property inspector
c. To place our BO on the web page, in component
palette scroll down till Collections section, from
there drag and drop a table
d. To connect ur table to BO, select the table ( click
on university student icon ( if not opened)
e. And in quick starts - select add data , the wizard
that prompts for all the necessary info to connect
our table with data src
f. Here the first step is to choose an endpoint ,
choose ur BO (LOCATE DATA)
g. Click next in the next step we need to add the cols
that needs to be displayed ( select it in the order of
how is shud be displayed)( BIND DATA)
h. Next step is to provide query parameters ( shall
skip this for now) (DEFINE QUERY)
i. Can now see the data form task BO on page, can
click run icon so that application wil open in new
tab and can see the application how the end user
can see
c. Staging and deploying the application
These steps will be skipped for now
