Abstract: Techniques for simplifying the process of building an application and making changes to the application. The process of creating and editing an application is simplified such that a non-technical user can build and edit applications without having any programming or technical knowledge. An infrastructure is provided for building an application that enables a user to create an application by simply designing a user interface for the application using one or more provided user interface (UI) components. A user can build a full executable application by simply using UI components and the back end data objects and schemas used for the application are automatically created and updated by the infrastructure. Due to the automatic creation of the data objects and schemas and the automatic binding of these to the UI components of the application, the application being built is able to run or execute while being built and/or edited.
