Wisss : generate web application in PHP (faster and better of course)

May 3, 2007 5:38 pm alf Wisss

With the release of Acceleo 2.0 and planet Acceleo, it’s time to open a new blog to write about my free projects, specially Wisss, a generator based on Acceleo/EMF/GMF/Eclipse to build PHP application.

Wisss stands for “Webapp is stupid, simple and secure” and we can consider that it provides three different subprojects. Wisss provides a metamodel wich defines what a web application is and allows to create a model quickly. It also provides a generator for Acceleo which generates the PHP and MySQL code corresponding to the model. Finally, it provides a MDE oriented PHP framework.

I’ve already made a first prototype but I’ve decided to restart from scratch as I better understand pittfalls of MDE and Acceleo. I want to make it easier and more flexible. Till now,Wisss is not yet ready to be tested, but it’ll be soon. I wait to have something useable before comitting all my changes.

You can see videos of the first prototype (creation of a blog engine) :
