1. The App Generator is a new feature in v4. It was designed to greatly accelerate the development of Joget Workflow apps. It is also a very useful tool for rapid prototyping your app when working with your end-users. Using the App Generator, you can automatically generate an app with lists, CRUD (Create-Read-Update-Delete), incorporate a generic approval process and a Twitter Bootstrap userview theme.

2. To use the App Generator, firstly create and design your form. When you are done, save the form. Then click on the large Generate App button on the top right of the Form Builder.
