Abstract
A method, system and software tool for emulating a portal application in a rich client application are provided. The rich client application is executable on a client platform capable of displaying views contributed by plug-in components registered with the client platform. The method comprises providing a user interface for eliciting user inputs for creating a new portal application on the client platform, detecting user selection of a portal page layout, and one or more views for each cell of the page layout, and generating a description of a client page representing the portal application. When the rich client application is run on the client platform it is directed to build a client page representing the portal application using the generated description.
