A dynamic generic framework for distributed tooling comprising a system for creating, storing and manipulating objects, which includes a datastore, a user interface and tools. In a distributed or client-server environment, a virtual datastore is created on the client, through which updates to the user interface and commands to the tools are routed. Commands and updates are transmitted asynchronously through handlers. The objects in the datastore are all of the same kind and have a predetermined generic or uniform attribute set. The schema is comprised of schema objects in the datastore which schema objects are dynamically created by the tools. The user interface perceives and comprehends the schema and utilizes the schema to identify and display objects in the datastore, the relationships therebetween, and the commands that can be executed thereon.
