ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented system for a dynamic screen generation and navigation engine is provided. The system includes a set of screen templates, a screen data document, and a screen manager. The screen data document includes screen data for at least one screen template of the set of screen templates. The screen manager includes a generator engine and a navigator engine. In response to user input, the generator engine obtains screen data from the screen data document, obtains a screen template from the set of screen templates based on the obtained screen data, combines the obtained screen data with the obtained screen template to generate a screen, and displays the generated screen. The navigator engine obtains a user selection for the generated screen, references the screen data corresponding to the obtained user selection to determine a next screen to generate, and prompts the generator engine to generate the next screen based on the referenced screen data.
