This window is called a source browser window or just browser window and has 3 important panes. Followed counter-clock-wise from the upper left pane, the panes are described below.

Pane 1 is called the Projects pane, it contains a list of projects presented in a treeview. A project can be a folder and/or a list of files

Pane 2 is called the Fragment Forms pane, it contains a list of fragment forms of the fragment group selected in the Projects pane. A selected fragment group is called a fragment group viewer/editor or just group viewer/editor.

Pane 3 displays the BETA code of the fragment form selected in the Fragment Forms pane. It is called the code viewer/editor. This code viewer will be seen in many different windows and its functionalities are described later.

Browsing can be done at basically 3 levels: the project level, the group level or at the code level.
