Clutch App
A container holding all of the files that will make up the HTML/JavaScript/CSS portion of your app. This container is registered with Clutch and is given a name and a short name to easily talk about it.
Screen
A content area that will be shown to the user using your app. Each Clutch App contains one or more screens. Examples of a screen could be a user profile or a list of friends. This roughly corresponds one-to-one with the number of UIViewControllers in your app that use Clutch.
Short Name
The short version of an app name that is used in the URL for your Clutch App and is typed into the command line. For instance an app named “Example App” might have the short name “exampleapp”, which you might type into the command line like clutch dev -a exampleapp. Some people might refer to this as a Slug.
