Configuration

Inistate provides a comprehensive set of configuration tools for designing, managing, and previewing workflow applications. It consists of two main sections: Studio and Builder, each offering unique functionality for configuring modules, designing workflows, and previewing application layouts.

Workspace Navigation and Menu

Both Studio and Builder include a Workspace Menu Bar on the left side, providing access to key workspace functions, such as user controls, notifications, and a list of available modules (for studio - builder module list is on the right). This menu ensures easy navigation between different parts of the configuration interface and the workspace itself.

Module Management

A Module Management Area appears in both sections, providing tools to customize modules by configuring listings, data fields, templates, workflows, and activities. In both Studio and Builder, users can add, modify, and manage these aspects without needing code. This consistency in module setup allows users to maintain data integrity and workflow logic across the application.

Form Design and Listing Configuration

Each section allows users to define how forms are displayed, organized, and filtered:

Form Design

• Users configure the Create, Edit, and View stages for each form.

Listing Configuration

• Users can create custom lists based on specific criteria for data display.

Information Fields

• Users specify the types of data (e.g., text, number) collected in each module.

Workflow and State Management

In both Studio and Builder, users can define workflows that control how data moves through the application. This includes setting up:

Activities

• Actions users can perform within a module (e.g., approving a request).

States

• Different statuses that data can transition through within the workflow.

Flow

• Defines transitions between states, linking activities to specific outcomes.

Preview and Testing

Both sections allow for testing configurations in real-time:

Preview Options

• Users can switch between mobile and desktop views, reload previews, and go Fullscreen.

Run Mode

• A "Run" button at the top allows users to test their application directly within the configuration environment.

Unique Features in Studio and Builder

While Studio focuses more on the backend configuration and setup of modules, Builder provides a live preview of the app’s interface, simulating how it will appear on both mobile and desktop devices. Builder also includes a Bottom Navigation Bar in the mobile preview, allowing users to test navigation and app flow from an end-user perspective.
