This chapter describes the basic steps to create an APEX application. Using APEX, it is really simple to create a basic application. The user interface is web-based and very intuitive. A lot of objects can be created using wizards which will guide you through the creation process.

Our aim is to make an intranet application where employees can get information. When starting the application, it shows a homepage with information such as weather, traffic company information, latest news, blogs, and so on. Employees can see their colleagues' profiles, just like in Facebook. Employees also have access to documents such as timesheets and project plans.
