Wavemaker is a RAD browser based development tool for creating Java/Javascript/Ajax applications.

Wavemaker is 100% open source. (Apache 2 license)

I am interested in it because I need to create applications backed by PostgreSQL databases.

Quickstart

Build database and import it

Start Wavemaker running as yourself not root. Intent is that you build on a staging server and deploy to cloud.

A project directory is created in your home directory.

Sample database

I will build my sample app on my motion database, which I use to keep track of bicycle and car things. It is part training log, part asset manager.

The basic tables are: trip rider photo vehicle maintenance

The junction tables are: j_trip j_photo
