In which sense: fast results when starting with? May be one guy
should release the Seaside on Rails he did. My impression with Ror
is that it is fast but then.
Have a look at netstyle.ch projects:
- www.prolife.ch
- www.squeaksource.com
for the public ones
or www.lukas-renggli.ch/smalltalk/pier/
did you look at www.dabbledb.com/utr
because this is a really cool seaside application.
BTW you can also use VW: it is platform independent and have Seaside
too.
