# Adding a page

When you first launch the Discovery Framework, the interface consists of a single page. However, you can add additional pages.

Adding pages to your application maximizes application logic while minimizing visual clutter. Spreading components among several pages also helps improve the performance of the application.

To add a page to your Discovery Framework application:

1. Click Add Page.

2. An empty page label is created. Type a name for your new page.

3. Click Save. A new named tab is added to the application.

The name that you gave the page (at step 2) is actually its display name. When the page is created, it has a friendly URL name that you can see from the Manage Page dialog for that page, as in this example for the "Data Results" page:

The display name is shown in the page tab. But because its display name is not the same as its friendly URL name, you can easily change its display name, as explained in the following topic.

Once you have created additional pages, you can create page transitions to target the output of individual components to the page you specify. You can also apply a new theme to the page.
