Over the frevvo blog Ashish Deshpande posted some interesting RIA experiments he made using REST applications with AJAX. He explored in the first part the view and edit entities using a frevvo form to compose entity resources into a view resource that can be used to update the entities. The second part a continuation to show how the previous entities can be used to create or edit frevvo forms.
Most real applications boil down to interacting with documents (creating, retrieving, updating and deleting them) but what's missing is an easy way for users to do so using rich, browser-based applications. That's where Ajax comes in - it puts a "face" on REST and makes it possible to create complex, visual, browser-based applications without compromising any of the principles of REST. Since we are talking about Frevvo, version 1.0 is finally there as hosted or downloadable for in-house installation. More information and download at http://frevvo.com
