CodeRAD

Rapid Application Development toolkit and templates for Java developers using Codename One. It focuses on higher reusability, rich UI components and MVC (Model-View-Controller) principles.

CodeRAD GitHub

Watch the CodeRAD 2 Introduction Video for a short introduction to features and concepts.

Features

  1. Reusable Components - Facilitates the creation of View components that can be easily reused across projects without requiring any dependencies.

  2. Rich UI Components - Components built with CodeRAD are richer than the standard Codename One UI components. They are designed to be useful right out of the box, while still being customizable.

  3. Clean Separation of Code - Provides model, view, and controller classes which facilitate the clean separation of code following MVC (Model-View-Controller) principles.

  4. Loose Coupling - Views can be "loosely" coupled to their model, allowing them to be used with many different model classes. Learn more

  5. Declarative UI Syntax - Build your user interfaces declaratively using a light and expressive XML-based syntax.
