Application Frameworks

One called “<a class="wikilink" href="http://swik.net/Wee">Wee</a>” is a Seaside2-like approach, which has “real” components and much more. <a rel='nofollow' href="http://www.ntecs.de/viewcvs/viewcvs/*checkout*/Wee/trunk/doc/rdoc/index.html">Wee</a> There’s also a port of Mewa (Meta-level Architecture for Generic Web-Application construction: http://www.adrian-lienhard.ch/files/mewa.pdf) available in Ruby, which runs on-top of Wee. This probably compares to FunFormKit or FormEncode with the exception that it’s all about meta-data and not tied to web-formular at all. A custom formular-editor (with all kinds of relations; single, multiple, single_relationship, multiple_relationship) is below 200 lines of very readable code. <a href="http://rubyforge.org/projects/nemo">RubyForge Nemo</a> If you don’t like ActiveRecords (the database mapper of RubyOnRails) than just use Og (ObjectGraph) which is very similar to SQLObject (create SQL tables on the fly). It’s part of <a class="wikilink" href="http://swik.net/Nitro">Nitro</a>, another “major” web-framework for Ruby: <a href="http://navel.gr/nitro/">Nitro</a> Ruby Mon, 06 Jun 2005 23:24:38 -0700 Tue, 04 Oct 2005 17:15:32 -0700
