We have examined a simple CRM sample application built using WaveMaker. While the scope of the application may have been limited, it still provided us with a robust user interface. We have secured access to a copy of WaveMaker Studio and the example application. We have chosen Google Chrome as our development browser and even started looking at how the sample application is put together.
In the next chapter, we'll continue into the application architecture. We'll look at the JavaScript client and how it is put together, including its use of the Dojo Toolkit. We shall also look at the Java server side of the application and how it works. No understanding of a web application would be complete without looking at the asynchronous transfer of data between browser and server. We'll also look at how types work in WaveMaker.
