Bindows is a term that originally referenced a "BI-Windows" application created with AJAX technologies. Although the name has remained the same, the term Bindows now refers to any type of rapid application development based on this platform and tools.
Bindows is a tool for writing "zero-footprint" applications. These applications do not require software installation on the client side, and they cannot access local resources such as the client's hard disk. There are other methods of creating these applications but Bindows offers a unique mix of GUI richness, supported client platforms, bandwidth effectiveness and server independence. Bindows uses the strong combination of DHTML, JavaScript, CSS and XML. Its programming language is JavaScript which is a modern, object oriented scripting language. Bindows also provides a unified method of accessing server resources through Web Services.
