File Types
WebGroove has a few different file types you should be familiar with. These different types are usually distinguished by file extensions, although this is just by convention. You can name your files in any way that makes sense to you.

Project Files
A project file lists the different components that make up your web site and directs the compiler how to build them. These typically have a .wgp file extension.

Source Files
These are files that will be run though the compiler to produce an output file. They can contain any kind of information, including WebGroove tags. These typically have a .wg file extension.

Agent Scripts
These are web pages with embedded Agent tags to be interpreted at run time. By convention, these use the extension .wga, but your web server may require .cgi or some other extension.

Other Output Files
The compiler can build any kind of textual output file, but it most commonly generates .html files and Agent scripts. It could also be used to generate Perl scripts or any number of other things.
