+<p>The traditional Symbian UI application architecture provides the most
+flexible approach to application UI construction. Traditional architecture
+is easier to port across different platforms than <xref href="GUID-68B999C2-0993-4804-9624-42C3D88BE5C7.dita">view
+architecture</xref>. Traditional architecture is also the best choice for
+single-view applications, if launching the view from external applications
+is not required.</p>
