The plugin is based on the well established Revolution desktop development system, an English-like scripting language descended from the HyperCard tradition. The same language will run on the server side and on the client side directly embedded in HTML and executed as the page is sent or loaded. We will demonstrate how to build a web application using a simple simulation complete with multimedia, integrated information and embedded Revolution tags. We will include details of the public beta program. date: 2009-04 event_title: 18th International World Wide Web Conference event_location: Madrid, Spain event_dates: April 20th-24th, 2009 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE citation: Miller, Kevin (2009) Will an easy to use language attract content experts?
