Macchiato User Inteface Framework
Modeled after the Struts framework, the UI framework uses similar internal components to provide the users with the cross-platform, cross-client Macchiato UI Framework. Our goal was to provide a way for developers to write a single set of "actions", and one user interface definition, and have it supported on any client and platform.

How it works
Every application consists of a set of Actions, Form-Beans and Screens. Actions and Form-Beans serve the same exact prupose as in the Struts model, and are implemented in a very similar way. User interfaces are defined in XML. For the Swing client, we use a powerful renderer SwiXML to convert the XML definitions into Swing objects at run-time.

• Cross client/platfrom 'Command' Framework based on the Apache Struts Project which will includes the following:
  • Abstract UI Layer which will support multiple clients and platforms
  • Template Based Screen Engine
  • Validation API
  • Visualization API
  • Internationalization Support
  • Mocha CSS (cross-platform implementation of CSS)

Documentation on the UI framework can be found in the documentation section.
