Announce

To continue the work made during previous Design Feast (June 2011, and December 2011), the next Eiffel Web Design Feast' is planned for Wednesday the 30th of May 2012 at Prague, Czech Republic, as a workshop during the TOOLS EUROPE 2012 conference.

Description

The first design feast was mainly to have a global view of Eiffel solutions related to web applications (server and client), this marked the real beginning for the Eiffel Web Framework project (EWF: open source project to write server application in Eiffel).

The second workshop was meant to have user feedbacks, and try to reduce the gap between the low level components and the expected user friendly framework. In the meantime, the Eiffel Web Framework got improved, and is reaching the state of first release (around the 15th of May).

The aim this time is to present the first release, explore new ways to reach user friendly components, and plan for next steps.

Eiffel Web Framework

  • Check the page of the EWF project.
  • Framework to build web server application in Eiffel
    • Written in void-safe Eiffel
    • Compliant with future EWSGI specification, then portable on any platforms, and httpd available connectors.
    • Provides the core functionalities, such as REQUEST, RESPONSE, URL router (url dispatching), URI template component, MIME handler, ...)
    • Provides simple http client library.
    • More to come (about RESTful, HATEOS, Authentication, ...) after the first release.
    • Once the first release is out, feel confident to contribute with libraries and tools built on top of EWF. So this new Web ecosystem covers all the needs.
  • Important note, the Eiffel Design Feast will start at 9:10am. However, if you want to listen to the Keynote, you can still join the workshop at 11:00am.
  • Program: to be defined
