Front-ends and Extensions

The Genero Application Server can serve applications using various front-ends and extensions.

Genero Desktop Client (GDC)
The Genero Desktop Client allows you to run the application through the GAS, yet deliver the application locally using the GDC. For more information about the GDC, refer to the Genero Desktop Client User Guide.
Genero Web Client for JavaScript (GWC-JS)
The GWC-JS allows you to deliver Genero applications in a Web browser on the client machine. It is a JavaScript client that works with Node technology. The Genero Web Client is provided as part of the Genero Application Server installation. For more information about the GWC-JS, see What is GWC-JS?.
Genero Web Services (GWS)
Genero Web Services allows you to implement Web services. Web services are a standard way of communicating between applications over the internet or an intranet. A web service can be a server that exposes services or a client that consumes a service. For more information, see What is Web Service?.
Genero Web Client (GWC-HTML5)
The Genero Web Client for HTML5 allows you to deliver Genero applications in a Web browser without having to install any software on the client machine. It uses browser-based themes. The Genero Web Client is provided as part of the Genero Application Server installation. This version of the GWC has been deprecated; new development should use the GWC-JS instead. For more information about the Genero Web Client for HTML5, refer to the Genero Application Server 2.50 User Guide.
