UI Layout Definition Format

Version: 1.6 Documentation Version: 1.6 Author: Dalibor Votruba URL: quadarax.com/ui-layout-def

A comprehensive XML-based format for describing user interface layouts with inheritance, pattern definitions, view organization, external includes, platform-specific extensions, and advanced validation. This format enables cross-platform UI generation with strict validation, modular component libraries, and modern development practices.

Overview

The UI Layout Definition Format provides a standardized way to define user interfaces that can be translated to various platforms (Windows Forms, WPF, Avalonia, Qt, Web, Mobile). It emphasizes:

• View-Based Organization: Logical grouping of related UI components by business function
• Separation of Concerns: Pattern definitions separate from usage
• Inheritance: Base wireframes and views with specific overrides
• External Includes: Modular design with external pattern, view, validation, and window files
• Advanced Validation: Comprehensive rule system with custom validators and profiles
• Cross-Platform: Platform-specific control libraries with unified abstractions
• Modern Features: State management, accessibility, performance optimization, testing support

Schema Validation Status

✅ All schema files and definitions are validated and consistent

• All XSD schema files pass validation
• Pattern definitions (abstract-controls.xml) validate successfully against schemas
• Gallery control integration is fully validated
• Namespace declarations are correct and consistent across all files

Core Concepts

1. View-First Design

Views represent logical business functions (ProductView, OrderView) that group related windows and define shared data context, state management, and behaviors.

2. Patterns-First Design

All controls and structures must be defined in the <patterns> section before use in windows, with comprehensive validation and platform-specific extensions.

3. External Includes

Modular design allows splitting definitions across multiple files:

• Pattern includes for control libraries
• View includes for business logic organization
• Validation includes for rule sets
• Window includes for UI definitions

4. Advanced State Management

Support for modern state management patterns including Redux, MobX, and state machines with persistence and synchronization.

5. Accessibility-First Design

Built-in support for WCAG compliance, screen readers, voice control, and adaptive technologies.

6. Performance Optimization

Integrated performance monitoring, lazy loading, virtualization, and optimization suggestions.

7. Security by Design

Comprehensive security framework with vulnerability protection, data encryption, and audit trails.
