“WaveMaker’s Studio and Framework provides a powerful solution for rapidly developing web-based applications. But there are a lot of development tools out there. Why should I use WaveMaker?
FASTER: Our studio is much faster than any other choices out there. Drag & drop assembly of widgets and service, code-free integration of web-services, databases and Ajax UI, and one-touch deployment to standard Tomcat servers all work seamlessly together to let you build complete web apps in hours!
EASIER: You don’t have to be a Guru to build or maintain a WaveMaker application. You get the power of Dojo, Ajax and Java without the computer science degree from Stanford. Developers of all backgrounds can be instantly productive with WaveMaker.
But, unlike some of the “simple” tools you’ve seen, you’re not limited in what you can do. At any point, you (or your favorite Guru) can drop into JavaScript, CSS, even Java, to extend your application.”
