  2. When the folder expands to reveal the files within it, right-click client_resources, and click New File on the menu that appears.
  3. Type a new name for the file, welcome.vdl, and press Enter.
  4. Double-click welcome.vdl to open it.
  5. Paste the following text into the file editor: 
    <vdl version="4.1">
  <vdl-page>
    <vdl-section heading="Example app">
      Welcome to the example Xpress Insight app.
    </vdl-section>
  </vdl-page>
</vdl>
  6. Click File > Save.
