R5 Domino Designer

Designer is an integrated application development environment that lets developers and Web
site designers create, manage, and deploy secure, interactive applications for the Domino
Application Server.
Domino applications let people share, collect, track, and organize information, using Lotus
Notes or the Web. Domino applications can cover a wide range of business solutions,
including:
• Workflow: Route information
• Tracking: Monitor processes, projects, performance, or tasks
• Collaboration: Create a forum for discussion and collaboration
• Data integration: Integrate with relational databases and transactional systems
• Personalized: Produce dynamic content based on, for example, user name, user
profile, access rights, or time of day
• Globalization: Use Domino Global Workbench to produce global sites
Domino Designer, with the Domino Application Server, is optimized to enable developers to
build applications that facilitate the flow of information between an organization's enterprise
systems and front-end business processes.
Improvements to Development Environment
• Comprehensive development environment
• Intuitive visual environment
The new Designer look-and-feel lets developers optimize their work environment by
creating project bookmarks.
• Improved programming environment
The Programmer's pane provides access to all application objects and reference
information on the Domino objects and languages. New and updated tools enable easier
access, use, and reuse of code and objects.
