WebRatio 4 WS 4.1

As CAD systems introduced process automation in the engineering of complex mechanical and electronic products, WebRatio introduces a CAD approach for Web applications; as CAD systems embody sufficient information about mechanical components or circuits to enable the construction of artefacts from their graphical specifications, WebML embodies sufficient information about Web applications (in terms of: their content, their hypertext structure, their look&feel, their underlying data and Web management technology) to permit the automatic generation of Web-enabled software systems. Many tool vendors offer some form of wizard-based programming or of visual software development, but none has gone so far and so deep to support the full-fledged generation of both the back-end and the front-end of complex Web applications without writing any line of code; this happens because WebRatio exploits original and patented notations and techniques specifically conceived to assist the design of Web applications.
