 ==== Common Uses ====
-MIStudio can be used to build:
   * Dashboards for viewing equipment, process, or production status
   * Operator interfaces for tools, machines, and industrial systems

 ==== Basic Concept ====
-A MIStudio project usually contains one or more applications. Each application can contain graphics and logic. Graphics are used to build the visual display. Logic and data sources are used to send values into those graphics or respond to user actions.
+An MIStudio project usually contains one or more applications. Each application can contain graphics and logic.
+The [[mistudio:design_editor:start|MIStudio Design Editor]] is used to build the visual portion of an application using graphics and controls.
+The [[mistudio:logic_editor:start|MIStudio Logic Editor]] is used to work with data sources, connections, and application logic.
+Graphics can display values and provide user interaction, while logic and data sources can update those graphics or respond to user actions.
 For example, a simple project might contain:

 A good beginner workflow is:
+  * Understand what MIStudio is.
   * Open MIStudio.
+  * Understand the project structure.
   * Create or open a project.
   * Create an application.
-  * Add one or more graphics.
+  * Build the visual interface in the Design Editor.
   * Edit graphic properties.
-  * Connect a test data source.
+  * Use the Logic Editor to add data sources and logic.
+  * Connect a data source to a graphic.
   * Save, close, and reopen the project.
-  * Confirm the graphics and connections restore correctly.
