====== SiteManager ======

It's a web base interface to create Radria projects, setup the database, publish them over FTP and install / remove / upgrade packages.

You will find more information in the [[tools:SiteManager|SiteManager documentation]]



===== Project setup =====



The SiteManager allows you to manage your different Web Application projects. 

When creating new projects it automatically creates the base file structure and required files for your new project.

When you create a new database name and username it will automatically create the database and setup the proper user privileges.






===== Package Management =====

The package management is one of the most powerful feature of Radria.

By default a Radria project is blank with nothing in it.
It's by using Add-ons, tools, libraries, components and applications that you will compose your application.
This allows maximum flexibility in the web application you want to create.

More information on [[the_packages]] and how to create them is contained in the extend Radria section.


===== Application Publishing =====
Each package in your project has a set of instruction that define which files should be uploaded and what instructions to run in order to configure them on the live server.
