What is an Application?
=======================
Let us define a typical web application as being a set of:
#. Users - who use the application
#. Roles - roles assigned to users for various functions
#. Pages - where users navigate and see relevant information
#. Forms - where users enter new data
#. Reports - where users get a tabulated view of their data
#. Permission Rules - that define what each role is allowed to do or not do
#. Logic - Automatic actions that are performed at various events
#. Validations - Checks that ensure the data entered by the users is valid
#. Print Formats - Printable documents based on the data users have entered
#. UI Widgets - Menus, Lists, Dialogs that are used for navigating, entering or displaying information
#. Module - So that you can group Roles, Forms, Pages, Reports for more complex applications
Let us now start building these entities in the wnframework
