building modern web apps with webobjects

WEBOBJECTSBuild modern web 2.0 enterprise class web apps, fast and easy.

WebObjects ?

Why re-invent the wheel?

Proven technology, it can handle the load

It’s Java like you know it but not quite (forget EJB and Struts)

Stupid Apple, it’s Mac only (what about Linux and the other one)

But no one uses WebObjects do they?

And isn’t Ruby on Rails what the cool kids use?

What is WebObjects?

Like Cocoa & Core Data for the Web

EOF - Database Abstraction, no SQL nescessary!

Component Based / MVC design

Reuse popular Java libraries (JavaMail, FlickrJ)

What is WebObjects?

Easily work with state and sessions, it’s all built in

Real IDE (Eclipse/WOLips) not just TextMate
