Protogrid is an integrated application development solution for the development and operations of information systems. It comprises a server and a client. The client is available for web browsers and iOS. Protogrid includes a development interface that allows for development of applications using rapid application development methods. On the back end there are NoSQL databases like CouchDB[1]. Business logic can be added to a Protogrid application using Javascript.
Design Goals
According to the web site of the developers[2] the goals were
- rapid application development: avoid the programming of standard stuff like table views, standard action buttons, menus etc.
- cross platform development: any Protogrid application runs as is on all platforms supported by Protogrid (at present: several web browsers and iOS)
- multi language support: any Protogrid application can be translated within hours to any other language by a person with knowledge of the source and target language
- ability to run off-line: any Protogrid application must be able to run off-line on a mobile device offering the full set of functionality
Features
- Portability: Protogrid applications are supposed to be portable to all Protogrid clients without additional programming effort.
- Touch screen optimization: Protogrid applications are optimized for touch screens
- Support for Responsive Design: Protogrid applications run on a range of screens starting from smartphones, tablets unto large screens. The fields and columns are automatically distributed.
- Cloud based: The Protogrid back end server resides in a public or private cloud¨
