How XUM-application works on client

Client Xum-application has the same concept as standard XAF-application and consists of Frames/Windows, View/ViewItem, Controllers и Templates/Controls.

XUM-application working has key features:

• Client application works with server throw two channels: 
  • The metadata channel provides for getting and storing metadata about types, Views, and images in the local client cache.
  • The data exchange channel is used when the user is working with the application. The states of objects are transferred and controller actions are performed through this channel.
• The metadata is downloaded to the client as needed and stored in the browser's local storage. The metadata is reloaded only after the local storage is cleared or the application version is changed.
• XUM-application works in statefull mode. At the same time, several independent connections can be created for each connected user.
• Most XAF-application controllers execute on the server, and data about changes in their behavior and state is transferred to the client. Some system controllers are fully implemented on the client and provide the work of the client XUM-application.

Templates/Controls/Editor use the DevExtreme jQuery Widgets. However, there are no restrictions on using widgets from other vendors.
