Building Multi-Page Applications

As applications grow beyond a few pages, structure becomes important. Here's how to organize multi-page Oorian applications.

Package Structure

com.myapp/
├── pages/
│   ├── admin/
│   ├── customer/
│   └── reports/
├── components/
├── services/
└── models/

Base Page Classes

public abstract class AdminPage extends HtmlPage
{
    @Override
    protected void createBody(Body body)
    {
        body.addElement(new AdminNavigation());
        Div content = new Div();
        createContent(content);
        body.addElement(content);
        body.addElement(new AdminFooter());
    }

    protected abstract void createContent(Div container);
}

Shared State

Use session attributes for state shared across pages (current user, preferences, etc.).

Conclusion

Good organization—clear packages, base classes, shared components—makes large applications manageable.
