Sencha Architect

Sencha Architect is a comprehensive software application which enables you to design and deploy applications for mobile devices and PCs, with a minimal amount of effort.

Extensive documentation and clean environment

The installation process might take a while, yet this is to be expected when considering the complexity of the program. It encompasses a menu bar, several buttons and a few panes which enclose all sort of information, as well as your on-going project.
In addition to that, well-drawn Help contents, comprehensive tutorials and several examples are provided, so as to make everything easier for all types of users, be they experienced or not.

Supported file types

This program enables you to use an Ext JS 5.0.x or Sencha Touch 2.3.x framework (or older versions of these) in order to create new projects, and lets you save projects to a custom location. Exporting is possible using an XDT file format, while you can also preview your work and publish items to a specified folder.

Elements at your fingertips and view logs

You can create both desktop and mobile apps, while it is also possible to toggle the main window from a design to a code view, with just a click of the button. Sencha Architect comes packed with a pretty large number of items you can easily use, by adding them to the “Project Inspector” pane. To be more precise, you can add behaviors, charts, containers, data, forms, models, resources, themes, trees and views.
Logs can be shown in a separate pane, along with a color-coded system which signal errors, warnings and items which have been debugged. You can easily take advantage of a search function, in case you do not find an element and bring up the Command Prompt.

Bottom line

In conclusion, Sencha Architect is an efficient and comprehensive software solution that provides users with a simple means of designing mobile and computer apps. The interface is intuitive, the Help documentation is comprehensive and the response time is good. The system’s performance is not going to be burdened and our tests did not reveal any kind of issues such as errors, bugs or hangs.
