The goal of this tutorial is to quickly show you how you can realize an application. To start, install Jelix as indicated on the installation page. We will consider that you are using the default configuration, then you didn't modify the tree structure of Jelix.

After that, open a console and go to the lib/jelix-scripts/ directory.

 under linux :  cd lib/jelix-scripts/
 under windows : cd lib\jelix-scripts\

This directory contains a script, jelix.php, which can make easy the creation and modification of different files of an application based on Jelix. You have to use it with the command line version of PHP and give it as parameter a Jelix command with some other parameters and options.

php jelix.php [--application_name] command_name [options] [parameters]

To avoid giving the name of the application for each command, use this one :

  export JELIX_APP_NAME=helloapp
  set JELIX_APP_NAME=helloapp (windows)
