The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/.

During the creation of The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/., it is possible to chose the type of Application that should be created. This page gives an overview of the different type.

There is no big differences between the proposed type. The The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. will use different code templates, to create the application. The main differences are in the Desktop class: the implementation of The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. event is not the same. There is nothing you can't program on your own if you change your mind afterward.

The SDK add add a The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/., called DesktopForm. This form comes with a The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. (DesktopProcessService) and a The Scout documentation has been moved to https://eclipsescout.github.io/. (DisplayFormHandler).
