rapidSTORM's user interface is based on a single window (the main window) with multiple tabs. Each tab represents either a job configuration or a running job. When rapidSTORM is started, a single job configuration for a localization job is opened by default.

Jobs can be started by clicking the Run button at the bottom of a job configuration. Further job configurations can be found in the Job menu.

This chapter will first exemplify basic usage and the process of opening jobs in a tutorial. Then, the general behaviour of input elements and the different kinds of job configurations will be explained.
