The WaveMaker platform consists of two components: WaveMaker Visual Ajax Studio™ for developing rich internet applications and WaveMaker Rapid Deployment Server™ for deploying applications into a standard and secure Java environment.
For application development we use spring and hibernate. For rapid application development there are many pitfalls around. Our mission is to provide a framework that handles all default settings and allows us to quickly start with the development tasks our customers are interested in. So the framework tries to support you by:
* Providing a maven based development environment which uses a proven dependency configuration for fast composition of a working base setup.
* Several utilities were needed during application development extending functions from other utility libraries, e.g. Apache commons.
* Providing a module concept for easy setup and extension of a base application
* Providing reusable and extendable components for common tasks such as application setup, user management, security, history and reporting.
* Providing a base UI implementation based on JSF/MyFaces/MyFaces Trinidad
Where to start
For starting have a look at the quick start tutorial. Within this tutorial a small database application is developed using the most important features provided by the framework.
