ROAM IDE (Integrated Dev Environment)

The ROAM IDE, a web-based development tool, allows for fast and easy application development and integration with existing Web Services. The drag-and-drop format allows UI and functions to be developed with ease, without the need for any specialized embedded-application development skills.

The IDE has security and communication capabilities built in that allow the smart client to securely access the ROAM server and also the Web Services without any TCP/IP coding or knowledge of security protocols.

The ROAM IDE is a drag-and-drop interface designed for Web Developers in the Flash/Director Macromedia demographic. It helps wrap Remote Web Services with User Interfaces appropriate for Mobile. No device-specific or network-specific knowledge is required. Where special functionality beyond that offered by drag-and-drop is required, the IDE supports an ECMA-compliant (JavaScript) scripting language.

Over-the-Air Updates

Currently, the plague of Mobile application development has been the maintenance and updates of deployed applications. The ROAM solution provides instant application updates. Once published, a new version of a given application is automatically loaded onto the device by an over-the-air (OTA) update.

The flexibility of the technology allows anyone using the application to seamlessly receive the update. Imagine how easy it is to adapt an application to your ever evolving needs and blast those updates to thousands of your Distributors.
