The software window for StreamLog is constructed from many key components, four of which are common to all views and control the majority of functionality:

* [Toolbar](software-introduction/toolbar)
* [Filter Panel](software-introduction/filter-panel)
* [Projects Panel](software-introduction/projects-panel)
* [<mark style="color:blue;">Editors Tabs</mark>](software-introduction/editors-tabs)
