Whitebeam 1.3.25 JavaScript Web Application Server

Whitebeam is a mature web-application server provided as an Apache module delivering server-side JavaScript and XML since 2002. Releae 1.3.25 now fully supports 64 bit environments and we now include both 32bit and 64bit RPMs.

Whitebeam application development occurs either in Server Side XML pages using WhitebeamML or in server-side JavaScript modules. Bindings are provided to a range to server technologies to satisfy web application requirements including PostgreSQL, libcurl, libGD, SMTP amongst others.

Examples of real-world use here :

Whitebeam is released under a BSD style license - enabling more flexible adoption of this key server-side technology.

Release details can be found at http://www.whitebeam.org/CHANGELOG.rhtm.

The major design aims for Whitebeam are simplicity of application development, familiarity with existing client side technologies, security, scalability (Whitebeam provides an unlimited number of front end web servers working concurrently) and reliability.

The commercial roots for Whitebeam have led to a complete set of application development documentation and a number of useful examples, including a Content Management application as well as a set of 'cookbook' examples to help new developers build applications. All the documentation is available on the Whitebeam homepage at: http://www.whitebeam.org
