11 Work With Events and Event Listeners

Events trigger actions when a user or the browser interacts with your application. For example, when a user clicks a button to navigate to the application's home page, VB Studio raises an event that triggers the navigate action.

There are many types of events: lifecycle events, variable events, component events, even custom events. Event types are more about how they occur and are all used to execute action chains in your application. The application reacts to events through event listeners, which declaratively specify the action chain to execute when the event occurs.
