New Application
Use the
New Application window to make an application. To produce software in VA Smalltalk, you begin by making a application. Then, you add parts to the application. The parts define your software's user interface and function. Thus, an application's role is to group parts.
Also use this window to make a subapplication, which groups parts within an application.
