CAWBL Is For Applications because
  • It can be organized like an application instead of a document.
  • It reads like application code instead of text markup, HTML, or XML .
  • It is easier to manage than a document, due to it being geared for application.
  • It is more complex than a document.
  • It is not driven line by line, line after line, by carriage return, like in a document.
  • It uses precise screen positioning like in offline software applications who use forms with Left, Top, Width, attributes or properties.
  • It uses properties, an object-oriented way of accessing a control.
  • It uses widgets and components as a basis instead of text or rich text or marked up text.
  • It is not embedded in a document. It is not an e-brochure or a flat enriched document. It is a true application on the screen, similar to offline software applications.
  • It can load documents into widgets or components. Loading applications into documents is AssBackwards, so CAWBL loads documents into the application's widgets.
