Introduction

In Getting Started, we will walk you through:

  1. Creating your Linxter Web Manager Account
  2. Registering a program (HelloWorld) to the Linxter Internet Service Bus (ISB)
  3. Building your program using our Visual Studio Template

With our Visual Studio HelloWorld template, you can build your first Linxter enabled program in about a minute. We also provide you with a standard Linxter integration template for when you are ready to go off on your own.

Before you Linxter enable any program, you need to register it to the Linxter ISB. When registering, you enter a name for the program and select various settings about how instances of the program will work and interact.

When instances of the program are initialized, they pull their settings from the Linxter ISB. This allows you to manage all of your Linxter API settings through your Linxter Web Manager Account, instead of through a command line tool or an IDE.

At any time, you can edit these settings. Those updates are sent to all existing instances of the program. The ability to dynamically make these changes or corrections to already initialized instances is a key feature of Linxter.
