Foundation Suite Development Tools
The same powerful Foundation Suite development tools used by BrickSimple software engineers, are now available as a comprehensive web application development package. Using Foundation Suite, software developers define applications with minimal or no compiling, eliminating much complexity of traditional application development. Using the graphical forms designer, non-programmer business-knowledgeable people can participate in the development process to create screens and workflows. Following implementation, applications built on Foundation Suite may be managed and modified through the web-based Application Manager, greatly reducing maintenance and enhancement efforts.
