Abstract

Certain embodiments facilitate collaboration between designers and developers in the creation of software applications. Designers and developers can work on the same multi-file-based software development project, without the designer having to address or even be aware of the multi-file structure of the project or the management of different versions of the project. Instead the designer can receive and send the project as a single file and work with it as if it were a single document. A developer or another user can address conflicts and other versioning issues that may result from collaborators making changes concurrently.
