TrimPath Junction: A walk through
Jack Herrington and Steve Yen have put together a nice little article introducing TrimPath Junction:
Junction is an all JavaScript framework that closely models the Ruby on Rails model-view-controller design pattern and implementation. And with the help of the Helma JavaScript web server, it runs the same code both on the client and on the server. Exactly the same code, in fact.
The framework not only handles the basics of rendering pages (using JavaScript templating), but it also handles data and code synchronization with the server, local client caching using Google Gears, model versioning, and much more. It’s an amazingly complete solution for an entirely new model of web development.
The article walks through the building of a very simple contact management system, and shows that ONLamp doesn’t believe in Long Pages ;)
