A method of creating an interactive application network includes displaying, by a processor, a workspace and a toolbox on a display screen, instantiating, by the processor, a first interaction container to display a first output in response to a first user input, instantiating, by the processor, a second interaction container to display a second output based on the first output, in response to a second user input, the second user input being a user interaction with the first interactive container, and linking, by the processor, the first interactive container with the second interactive container via an interactive link to form the interactive application network.
