jApp Description

jApp is a Pure Java based framework for creating applications based on the now universal document/desktop metaphora. What it is · Pure Java · Application Framework · Cross Platform · Document/Desktop · Native Application · Real Programmers Toolkit What it isn't · Integrated Development Enviroment · Drag and Drop Visual Coding · Web Application Framework · Next Great Widget Toolkit · Swing / SWT Replacement jApp is a framework developed on Java which will help you build your own applications. jApp is being offered as is in the hope that it will be usefull but without any warranty. It is GPL licensed so feel free to use it as you see fit, try building an application on it or just extract knowledge ideas and code snippets. jApp was not born yesterday, the roots of this framework go back to last century (late 1980's) and it has gone through several incarnations under various aliases in Pascal, C, C++ and now in Java. Interestingly, over the years the size/complexity of the framework has actually shrunk as non essential functionality has been refactored out. There is a history behind jApp that I hope to publish some day. I mention the long history in order to emphasize that jApp was born from genuine needs and has been battle tested in real combat conditions. I see that as the real value of this project i.e. that the code has actually been written to full fill real needs, been debugged and used in real life. This is no lab experiment or academic rehearsal. Having said that I feel it is just fair to mention that jApp has been essentially a one man effort, and thus may not compare with industrial strength products. On the other hand, in some respects it may even surpass them being lean and mean after years of exercising.
