Here’s the the following steps for developing a mini program:

1. Creation
2. Coding
3. Debug
4. Test
5. Upload
6. Release

And the applet development tool aims to provide you with a one-stop applet development service, including:

• Project creation
• Coding
• Simulator
• Debugging tool
• Upload

  Interface

You can create a sample project. And You will see the following interface after opening:

Coding

The mini-program development tool provides you with customized experience:

1. The file tree supports creating mini program by one click, which contains four files: axml, acss, js, and json.
2. There are prompts for automatic completion of mini-program syntax and API.

Simulator

The simulator is the core of a mini-program development tool. The mini program is not an ordinary H5 App, which cannot be previewed in a browser.
Any code modification will acton the simulator in real time. In order to facilitate debugging, the simulator provides functions including geographic location simulation.

Debugging Tool

The mini-program developer tool also provides a customized “Devtool”, which is used to check the log of the simulator operation and others. The debugging tool also provides AXML plug-in for debugging the mini-programelements:

Upload

When the development is completed，you can upload the mini-program package to the open platform.
