An OpenFLUID workspace is a directory organized to contain OpenFLUID projects for simulations and source code of simulators, observers and builder-extensions.

The default workspace is located in ${HOME}/.openfluid/workspace for Linux and MacOS systems or in %HOMEPATH%\openfluid\workspace for Windows systems. Any user can create as many workspaces as needed using the Environment section of the Preferences dialog.

A workspace directory is organized as following:

a project directory containing OpenFLUID projects
a wares-dev directory containing source code of wares in which there are the simulators, observers and builder-extensions directories for each ware category.
an openfluid-waresdev.json file containing the workspace configuration for wares development
