To create a new Rico application, select File > New > Other > Rico Application. The Rico Application Wizard consists of one wizard page (shown below).
All inputs on this page are required. The Application Name will be the name for the new application. The Project input defines which workspace project the new application will be created in. The Application Root will be the name of the directory created which will contain all of the new application's assets. Once the required inputs are supplied, selecting the Finish button will generate a new Rico application.
Once the Finish button is selected, the Rico application wizard will generate an html template file which will serve as the basis for the Rico application. This file will be created within the specified project within the specified application root directory location.
The Rico personality has predefined code snippets available for use during Rico application development. To open the Snippets View, select Window > Show View > Other > Basic > Snippets. Within this view, there will be a Rico category that will contain all available Rico code snippets. To use a code snippet, simple drag the desired snippet from the view and drop it within the <body> of the Rico application html file. Depending on the snippet, there may be inputs required at drop time, via a dialog window, which are used to customize the code snippet.
