ZohoCreator - Web-based Application Creation Environment
Check out our web-based application creation environment ZohoCreator - something I had a hand in. It was conceived over 3 years ago, and took shape slowly. At that time I wasn’t thinking about online application creation at all, really how to create a better rule engine. As I learnt more and more about rule engines, it struck me that what we are looking for is a programming environment where build time and runtime are substantially erased. After all, the purpose of rule engines is to allow flexibility at runtime, so rules that govern an application can be changed. That quest morphed into a web based application creation environment.
It is really a culmination of several years of my thinking about programming languages, databases and the like. Stay tuned for more posts on this.
