Kitto2 now with free opensource Kide2 since September 2017(提供Web解决方案,大概是觉得Mobile开发快差不多了)
Kitto2 is a tool for data-driven web application Development. It allows to create Rich Internet Applications based on a data model that can be mapped onto any database.
It was born primarily to address the needs of Delphi Client/Server developers, traditionally left out of the web business because of the variety of technologies and standards involved, their lack of structure (compared to Delphi) and because of the poor performance or bad luck of web development technologies bundled with Delphi over the years.
The goal with Kitto2 is keeping on writing the application logic in Delphi, with top-level database support (on par to what is expected in a traditional C/S environment), and at the same time using flexible and rapid tools for describing the GUI of a rich browser-based client application.
The client-side part uses ExtJS 6.2 to create a fully AJAX application, allowing you to build standard and advanced data-manipulating forms in a fraction of the time.
Kitto2 is aimed at Delphi developers that need to create web application without delving into the intricacies of HTML, CSS, Javascript or learning to use a particular library such as ExtJS, yet it allows access to the bare metal if required.
Kitto2 includes a database-agnostic data-access layer, allowing to create applications that work on any database engine and port applications between database engines.
A Kitto2 application is described as a set of easily maintained YAML files, keeping definitions abstract and declarative and allowing for future extensions. Business rules are enforced either declaratively or through small javascript fragments on the client, or in Delphi code on the server.
The major differences of Kitto2, compared to the first version are:
- ExtPascal library has been removed
- Replacement of Apache + FastCGI with WebBroker technology.
- Replacement of ExtJS 3 with ExtJS 6
- Kide editor also released under Open-Source license
