The disclosed methods and systems provide a computer content creation application that allows movement and use of components between editing contexts. Different editing contexts may result where the content utilizes instances of one or more components that are defined outside the outer context in which the instances are used. In another example, different editing contexts result where components are, for one reason or another, stored in separate locations. Embodiments disclosed herein further facilitate developing and using of multi-editing context computer content by providing techniques for organizing parts of content according to content editing context. Other embodiments organize such parts based on the particular editing and use functionality available in a current editing context. Certain embodiments simplify and facilitate a user's ability to move components from an outer or general context into another context, such as into a particular component's instance definition.

Systems and methods for creating computer content using multiple editing contexts

Certain embodiments facilitate collaboration between designers and developers in the creation of software applications. Designers and developers can work on the same multi-file-based software development project, without the designer having to address or even be aware of the multi-file structure of the project or the management of different versions of the project. Instead the designer can receive and send the project as a single file and work with it as if it were a single document. A developer or another user can address conflicts and other versioning issues that may result from collaborators making changes concurrently.
