TimeLineĀ® Developer (TLD) is a rapid application development frontend for Microsoft Visual Studio and C#.NET. Developed specifically for rich-UI database applications, TimeLine Developer boosts your productivity via graphical designers, code-generators and built-in business features. TLD created Applications feature state-of-the-art WPF/HTML5-user interfaces and a professional usability with no extra coding. Moreover, applications can be customized individually after the build allowing standard-software-developers to make customer specific modifications without sacrificing the possibility for later upgrades and without the need of a total rebuild.
The principal idea behind TimeLineĀ® Developer is to develop UI and DataSets without the need to code. The built-in data-binding engine allows binding via property-settings in combination with our suite of data-aware-controls. In contrast to Microsoftās entities, development with TimeLineĀ® Developer allows strong-typed access to fields and tables but still maintains extensibility even after the build-process (customizing framework) via integrated code generators. Coding can be done in the integrated IDE that features intellisense or within Visual Studio: TimeLineĀ® Developer automatically creates solution and project-files (.sln, .csproj) and thus functions like a rapid-development frontend for Microsoftās Visual Studio. We provide extensible coding-templates for the most frequently used scenarios (i.e. tabbed documents or response windows with ok/cancel buttons already in place). These templates can be modified or new ones can be added by the developer.
TimeLineĀ® Developer combines the productivity similar to a 4GL with the flexibility and power of a 3GL like Visual Studio and C#.net. All applications generated with TimeLineĀ® Developer can run 2-tier or 3-tier alternatively and thus can be run over the web. Encryption, client-server communication, MAC and IP-filtering, user-logins and even offline-storage and synchronisation are all taken care of by the TimeLineĀ® BusinessFramework ā more time for you to focus on business logic and customer requirements
