 To be successful, an application must do more than function correctly. It must also be good to look at, intuitive and user-friendly. This result is hard to achieve in client/server applications but when the target is the web world, this task becomes even harder. How to achieve an interactive application of a client/server type but based on the web?
Designing Internet websites and pages with animated contents similar to Flash is relatively easy. When it comes to animating forms, data scrolling devices, lookup window opening and closing for a whole application, however, this may well be not enough.
In.de features RD3, a full-ajax Javascript framework which ensures state-of-the-art layout combined with top performance and reduced bandwidth utilization.
Rendering of displayed items, animation and basic form behavior occurs through the browser. Communication with the server is limited only to those events in which the browser cannot be managed on an independent basis. Data is sent only when it is strictly necessary and is stored to a temporary cache memory. In addition, all packages sent are zipped to further reduce load on the bandwidth used. The communication layer analyzes the Internet line status as well as the server occupation status in order to ensure maximum interactivity with the resources available. This results in applications with a high level of usability, including GPRS mobile connections, with up to 40 fps frame rate via ADSL connections.
The applications designed are cross browser NPEs (Near Pixel Equivalent), i.e. real graphics equivalence is offered on the supported browsers (IE6+, Firefox3+, Safari3+, Chrome1+).
