What is a .XOJO_PROJECT file?
The .XOJO_PROJECT file extension is associated with a Xojo Project File. Xojo is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that is used for developing applications that can run on desktops, the web, and consoles. A file with the .XOJO_PROJECT extension contains data in a text format that outlines the various components of the application being developed. This includes the application's windows, menus, and settings needed to build the application into a runnable executable file.
To open a .XOJO_PROJECT file, you need to use the Xojo software. Xojo is the only program that can natively open and manipulate these files. When working with Xojo, projects can be saved in three different formats: Project (text), Binary, and XML. The .XOJO_PROJECT file is saved in the text format, which is useful for version control systems as it allows for easier tracking of changes to the project code. If you do not have a paid license for Xojo, you are restricted to saving your projects in the binary format, which uses the .XOJO_BINARY_PROJECT extension. This binary format is similar to the format used by Real Studio, the predecessor to Xojo.
To create a new .XOJO_PROJECT file in Xojo, you would start by selecting "File" from the menu, then "New Project...". You then name your application and click "OK." Once your project is set up, you can save it by going to "File" → "Save As...", choosing the location where you want to save the file, and then clicking "Save." It's important to note that REAL Software's Real Studio was rebranded as Xojo, Inc. in 2013, and since then, the software and all associated file formats have been known under the Xojo name.
