Rapid prototyping for web applications

This paper proposes a web-based toolkit for web page developers to produce functional version of database-driven web systems. Many researchers realize the significant difference between the development process of web systems and conventional software systems. A key difference in web development is the clients understood their requirements poorly at the beginning of the project. The objective of this toolkit is to achieve rapid software prototyping in building web application. This result will shorten the timeframes of the actual development process, and developers can produce a functional working system with a minimum amount of effort. The functional system not only will help the clients to have better understanding of the project requirements, but also articulating other possible solutions to their problems. This paper outlines the development of today web applications, and how the toolkit is designed to improve the development of web-based information systems.
