Included Applications Feature
When planning the structure of your application, consider sharing components such as frames and frame templates across your organization. You could put these components into a generic Standards application, for example, that you include in all of your other applications. In OpenROAD, an application that is shared in this way is referred to as an included application. In fact, OpenROAD itself takes advantage of this feature by including the core application library, which provides system‑defined application components including frame and field templates.
