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.
Truly WYSIWYG Web 2.0 Development
WaveMaker Visual Ajax Studio is an easy-to-use visual builder that enables the drag & drop assembly of scalable, web-applications using Ajax widgets, web services and databases. WaveMaker Studio will look and feel especially familiar to client/server developers who are used to working with visual tools.
WaveMaker has helped customers reduced development costs by 67% and cut the lines of code written by 98%. Less code makes WaveMaker applications cheaper to maintain and easier to manage.
Key Development Features:
- Drag & drop application assembly - minimizes coding
- LiveLayout™ - preview live data within the studio
- Studio runs in a standard browser - no complex development tools needed
