While there is a commercial product for the Python development platform called Webware, the term has sprouted up as shorthand term for Web Application or Webapp. In fact, Wikipedia (as of this writing) defines webware thusly:
In software engineering, a Web application or webapp is an application that is accessed via Web over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. It is also a computer software application that is coded in a browser-supported language (such as HTML, ASP, PHP, Perl, etc.) and reliant on a common web browser to render the application executable.
Web applications are popular due to the ubiquity of a client, sometimes called a thin client. The ability to update and maintain Web applications without distributing and installing software on potentially thousands of client computers is a key reason for their popularity. Common Web applications include Webmail, online retail sales, online auctions, wikis, discussion boards, Weblogs, MMORPGs and many other functions.
SonicFog was early to recognize the advantage of webware and the trend toward web based applications. With webware, no longer are you enslaved to your office for the technologies you need. You and your staff are free to collaborate from wherever you are. No more, "Oh, I left that inventory report back at the office." SonicFog can help you move your business processes out of the office and online where secure access can be granted to the key members of your staff, as well as you clients and vendors, if necessary. Use this link to see how affordable webware can be. |

Members of the Microsoft Expression Web 2 development team headed south to the SonicFog Headquarters in Browns Point, WA for a collaborative working session. This was a Contextual Design Meeting in support of the development of Expression Web 2. The Microsoft team was led by Expression Web Evangelist, Anna Ullrich. Ullrich mentioned that fully 50% of software developers, "consider themselves freelancers" and that her team desired to enhance Expression Web to meet these developers needs.
SonicFog's role was mainly consultative and demonstrative. "The Microsoft team asked the questions and took notes as we answered their questions and demonstrated our work flows," said SonicFog CEO, Tedd Caldwell.
The SonicFog VP of Technology was "impressed by the fact that Microsoft wanted to get down in the weeds with the grunt developers."
A follow-on meeting is planned for the near future at the Microsoft campus that will go even deeper "into the weeds" where the Expression Web Team will observe SonicFog developers as they write code that generates the markup for Content Management Systems' (CMS) components, modules and plugins.
Caldwell noted, "We look forward to working with Microsoft in their efforts to support the little guys in the web development arena." |
