# Citrix Content Publishing Utility

The purpose of this utility is to help Citrix administrators publish "content" or URLs into your Citrix XenApp/XenDesktop environments using a GUI based tool. While the ability to publish content is available already, it currently only exists from the Powershell cmdlets. This tool is currently

built to be used on a XenApp/XenDesktop server or as a published application.
