====== Create a jControls Showcase Demo Project ======

After installing the project templates from COMFILE Technology's Nuget feed, as described in [[jcontrols:development_environment:index|Setting up a Development Environment]], you will find several project templates to help you get started.  One is the jControls Showcase project template.  It serves as a demonstration of the many controls in the jControls library, while also providing a convenient way to try out the library and become familiar with its features.

  - Open Visual Studio and you'll be presented with the new project wizard.  {{:jcontrols:showcase_demo:new_project.png}}
