Introduction
This Step-by-Step tutorial will guide you through the process of virtualizing your applications and making them accessible via any web browser using Thinfinity® VirtualUI v3.0. Get ready to enjoy cross-platform functionality without the need to rewrite your existing code.
Requirements
To use Thinfinity® VirtualUI you must have access to the source code in order to add a piece of code to the dev project you can find the code example for your specific coding language here.
If you need to publish any third-party Windows-based application to the web, our Thinfinity® Workspace is the ideal solution.
Once you have integrated and tested your application with Thinfinity® VirtualUI on your development machine, the next step is to deploy it on a server.
Step-by-Step Tutorial
To create an application profile, follow these steps:
1. Open the Thinfinity® VirtualUI Server Manager, available in the Start Menu.
2. Go to the Applications tab.

You can also add your own icon to the application by clicking on the “None” field next to “Icon”
6. Press ‘OK’ and ‘Apply’ on the Server Manager screen.
Now the application is ready to be reached on the Web.
