I'm thinking of creating an app that would make it ridiculously easy for the average Joe or Jane to create a web app - like graphical creation of input forms and output reports, automated creation of main menus and database structure (but can be done manually), pages which run user code on the data etc.
Is it possible? Or does it already exist?
Sounds a bit like the Zoho Creator, check it out if you haven't already <a href="http://www.zoho.com/creator/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zoho.com/creator/</a> There are other 'online databases' of a similar vein, Caspio Bridge comes to mind, googling will take you to them.<p>(There are also offline RAD web app development applications that lower the barrier to entry than learning a contemporary stack, see a few reviewed here <a href="http://www.infoworld.com/d/developer-world/infoworld-review-tools-rapid-web-development-297" rel="nofollow">http://www.infoworld.com/d/developer-world/infoworld-review-...</a> )
