Wavemaker is a great example of how a complicated product
with many features can be clarified with good interface design.
They use a logical page flow from left to right- matching the
developer workflow of adding a control to the canvas (LEFT)
, physically manipulating it (CENTER), then entering
tweaking the details in the properties and style panel
(RIGHT).
WYSIWYG Web 2.0
 Drag & drop application assembly - minimizes coding
 LiveLayout - preview live data within the studio
 Studio runs in a standard browser - no complex
development tools needed
Truly Open Ajax
 Push to Deploy™ - one-touch deployment to
built-in WaveMaker server
 Standard Java deployment - WaveMaker .war file
runs in standard Java servers
 Fully secure - database login, LDAP, role based
access controls
