- Web Notes Framework
- ===================
-
- Why Web Notes Framework?
- ------------------------
-
- This question was not relevant in 2005 when the Framework started being developed, now however,
- there are many popular frameworks beginning with Ruby on Rails, Django, GWT etc. Does it make sense to look
- at yet another framework? We think yes, here are a few reasons:
-
- * It is a pure meta-data framework, not based on templates that most frameworks support, taking automation
- the next level
- * It has back-end and front-end integrated with built-in AJAX
- * It has more features out-of-the box than any other framework
- * It is extremely light weight and runs on Apache-CGI
