Category:RAD

RAD stands for "Rapid Application Development", that is software development tools that are designed to create end user and sometimes server applications much faster than the traditional toolkits, and do so by providing tools and libraries that speed up the development process such as screen painters, automatic code generators, case tools and abstraction libraries. This category can also include tools that have some RAD aspects to their operation but are not primarily RAD tools.

Note that while most RAD tools focus on end user application development and therefore have some sort of GUI screen painters or similar tools that is not a firm rule, most Eiffel RAD environments lack such for instance.
