+
+Getting Started
+---------------
+
+This is your CDS Designer UI guide. No matter how experienced you are or
+what you want to achieve, it should cover everything you need to know —
+from navigating the interface to making the most of different features.
+
+
+What is CDS Designer UI?
+------------------------
+
++----------------------------------------------+--------------+
+| CDS Designer UI is a framework to automate | |
+| the **resolution of resources** for | |image1| |
+| **instantiation** and any **config** | |
+| provisioning operation, such as day0, day1, | |
+| or day2 configuration. | |
+| | |
+| CDS has both **design-time** and | |
+| **run-time** activities; during design time, | |
+| **Designer** can **define** what **actions** | |
+| are required for a given service, along with | |
+| anything comprising the action. The design | |
+| produces a `CBA | |
+| Package <https://wik | |
+| i.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Concepts#Mode | |
+| lingConcepts-ControllerBlueprintArchive>`__. | |
+| Its **content** is driven from a **catalog** | |
+| of **reusable data dictionary** and | |
+| **component**, delivering a reusable and | |
+| simplified **self-service** experience. | |
+| | |
+| CDS modeling is mainly based on **the TOSCA | |
+| standard**, using JSON as a representation. | |

+------------------------
+
+User Flow
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+|image10|
+
+
+Create a New Package
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can create a new CBA Package by creating a new custom package or by
+import package file that is already created before.
+
+**Create/Import Package**
+
+You can’t create/import a CBA package that has the same name and version
+of an existing package. Packages can be in the same name but in
+different version number (ex., Package one v1.0.0 & Package one v1.0.1).
+
+**Create a New Custom CBA Package**
+
+From the Packages page, click on the **Create Package** button to
+navigate to **Package** **Configuration**
+
+|image11|
+
+
+`MetaData <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Concepts#Concepts-958933373>`__
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+In **MetaData Tab,** select Package Mode, enter package Name, Version,
+Description and other configurations
+
+|image12|
+
+Once you fill all required inputs, you can save this package by click
+**Save** button in the Actions menu
+
+|image13|
+
+**Package Info Box:** It is in top of configurations tabs and it appears
+after you save a package for the first time
+
+|image14|
+
+You can continue adding package configuration or go directly to
+**Designer Mode** screen from Package infobox
+
+All changes will be saved when you click on **Save** button
+
+To close the package configuration and go back to the Package list,
+navigate to the top left in breadcrumb and click the **CBA Packages**
+link or click on **Packages** link in the Main menu.
+
+
+`Template & Mapping <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Concepts#Concepts--1256902502>`__
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can create as many templates using
+`artifact-mapping-resource <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Concepts#ModelingConcepts-artifact-mapping-resource>`__
+or/and
+`artifact-template-velocity. <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Concepts#ModelingConcepts-artifact-template-velocity>`__
+
+|image15|
+
+1. **Template name**
+
+2. **Template Section:** Where you include template attributes
+
+3. **Manage Mapping:** Here the automapping process occurs to template
+ attributes to refer to the data dictionary that will be used to
+ resolve a particular resource.
+
+**Template Section**
+
+|image16|
+
+1. **Template Type:** Template is defined by one of three templates
+ (Velocity, Jinja, Kotlin)
+
+2. **Import Template Attributes/Parameters:** You can add attributes by
+ Import attribute list file or by
+
+3. **Insert Template Attributes/Parameters Manually:** You can insert
+ Attributes manually in the code editor. Code editor validates
+ attributes according to the pre-selected template type
+
+**Import Template Attributes**
+
+|image17|
+
+After import attributes, you can add/edit/delete attributes in the code
+editor.
+
+|image18|
+
+**Manage Mapping Section**
+
+|image19|
+
+1. **Use current Template Instance:** You can use attributes from
+ Template section
+
+2. **Upload Attributes List:** In case you don’t have existing
+ attributes in Template section or have different attributes, you can
+ upload attributes list
+
+Once you select the source of attributes, you get a confirmation of
+success fetching.
+
+|image20|
+
+Then the Mapped Table appears to show the Resource Dictionary reference.
+
+|image21|
+
+When you finish the creation process, you must click on **the Finish
+button (1)** to submit the template, or you can clear all data by click
+on **the Clear button** **(2).**
