UI overview

The main window #

The main window has a left sidebar (navigation), a top header (breadcrumbs and the active wizard step bar when a package is open), and a main panel (the current view).

Sidebar: Top section #

Entry	Route	Purpose
Packages Workspace	/dashboard	List, create, import, export, tag, delete packages
Installed Apps	/installed-apps	Browse Windows-installed apps, generate uninstall commands, snapshot/compare
Logs	/logs	View the API’s log files for the current session and past sessions

Sidebar: Wizard steps #

Once a package is active, the sidebar shows the seven wizard steps. Steps you haven’t reached yet are enabled only if prerequisites are met; completed steps show a check mark.

1. Files
2. Session Config
3. Parameters
4. Install Phase
5. Uninstall Phase
6. Repair Phase
7. Preview

Sidebar: Bottom section #

• Settings — application preferences, toolkit management, package configuration
• Tags — manage the color-coded tag library
• Dark/Light Mode toggle — persists across restarts
• About — version, platform info, license, xoap.io link

Wizard header strip #

When a package is active, a strip below the breadcrumb shows:

• An “Active” badge with the package name
• Exit — returns to the dashboard
• Save — persists any unsaved in-memory changes (also auto-saves every 2 seconds)

Wizard footer #

At the bottom of every wizard step: Back, Step N of 7, and Next / Finish. The Next button is disabled when the current step has validation errors; hover it to see the reason as a tooltip.

Packages workspace (dashboard) #

The dashboard is your central workspace for managing packages.

Header #

• Package Usage Widget — Shows {used} | {max} Packages used with a progress bar and percentage. The free edition is limited to 10 packages; the widget turns red and the Start New Package button becomes disabled at the cap.
• Start New Package — Creates a blank package and opens the first wizard step
• Import Local — Opens a drawer to drop/select one or more existing PSADT .zip packages to import into the workspace

Toolbar #

• Tag filter (left) — Filter packages by assigned tag (or “All tags”)
• Search — Filter by package name
• Select All Packages — Batch checkbox
• Assign Tags — Opens a drawer to assign/remove tags on the selected packages
• Export (download icon) — Exports every selected package; in the desktop app each zip is written to the Default Output Folder (or Downloads fallback). In a browser the zips download one-by-one
• Delete (trash icon) — Deletes selected packages (with a confirmation prompt)

Package card #

Each package card shows:

• Package name (auto-set from AppName once filled in)
• Application metadata (vendor, name, version, architecture)
• Assigned tags (color-coded badges; limit 5 tags per package)
• Creation date
• Per-card actions: Open (enter wizard), Export, Edit Tags, Delete

Multi-select #

Click the card checkbox (or Select All) to queue packages for batch export / delete / tag assignment.
