Model, build, test, run - everywhere
Less code, fewer bugs, more app

Genero Enterprise lets you create cross-platform, transaction-oriented, business applications in double-quick time

Model apps quickly, insert custom business rules and in a matter of days and weeks they’ll be ready to deploy on the most popular industry platforms
Compile once and run everywhere – whether it be for desktops, browsers, mobile devices or ‘as-a-service’ in the Cloud

Genero Enterprise comprises Studio – a visual programming development framework that models apps  from three basic diagrams that describe: the application workflow, the database relationships and the user interface
The application is generated from these diagrams using customizable code templates that can be adapted to suit your own corporate needs and standards
Custom business rules can be inserted using Code Editor – a language sensitive editor that corrects syntax in real-time

Develop in teams, locally and remotely via the Subversion source code control system

(DIS)CONNECTED MOBILE APPS FOR IOS AND ANDROID

Genero Mobile lets developers unfamiliar with Genero Enterprise create mobile business apps that synchronize to back-end business services

Develop for iOS® and Android® simultaneously – from a single code base – maximizing market reach with a minimum amount of effort

Genero Mobile comprises a tailored version of Studio that creates native iOS and Android apps
Native by their ergonomics and by their performance
Genero Mobile apps access native API calls of each operating system

Connect to back-end services using JSON and XML Web services using wizards that hide API and protocol complexities

Apps adapt to the screen real estate – for smartphones or tablets – and rotate when spun, supporting touch sensitive gesture control without the need to learn each independent API call

Capture rich media, signatures, GPS data, QR and bar codes
Seamlessly integrate with on-board apps such as Camera, Phone, GPS, Email, Contacts and Calendar into the core of your application
Access motion sensors and storage peripherals
All this using an abstract API that enables you to develop just once for both platforms

HIGH-SPEED, HIGH VOLUME REPORTS FOR JAVA, C#, PHP

Genero Report Writer lets developers seamlessly embed enterprise-class reports into their Java®, C#, PHP and Cobol apps
An intuitive Report Designer supports enterprise features found in products orders of magnitude more expensive; page and group headers, smart page-breaks, running totals, charts, images, fonts, bar-codes, vector graphics, and tables

Stream high-volume graphic reports merged from multiple data sources comprising complex, nested data structures
No matter how long your report is – just a few pages or thousands – Genero Report Writer streams output with the first page emerging in just seconds

Increase report production significantly by empowering end-users to tailor their own dynamic reports from existing templates and free scarce developer resources for more value-added feature development

Write once, run everywhere
Platform independent business logic
Less code, fewer bugs, shorter test cycles

LOW-CODE NO-CODE,

THE DEVELOPMENT CONTINUUM
Genero Enterprise is a unique, Low-Code application development platform tailor-made for mission-critical business solutions
You’ll develop apps faster and smarter making your enterprise more nimble in the marketplace
Faster, because you’ll model most of your app without writing a single line of code
Smarter, because that code runs everywhere – without recompilation – on servers, desktops, webtops, smartphones, tablets or in the Cloud

• THE CONTINUOUS GENERATION PROCESS
  Apps are developed using Genero Studio’s ‘Business Application Modeller’ – a graphical tool that creates your workflow from which you generate code
• Templates are provided with the most commonly used patterns that you customize to fit your needs
• Start development with the Application Diagram
• This creates the program flow of the forms and reports
• Now import a database schema
• Studio’s schema designer will help you create one if need be
• Click on ‘Generate’ and very quickly you have your basic application ready-to-run
• Refine the look & feel with the forms designer
• Add widgets such as radio groups, comboboxes
• Add lookups
• Add toolbars
• Add graphics…
  Custom business rules are added with Code Editor and sit within protected ‘code tags’
• These tags remain untouched when you eventually regenerate your app
• Apps are never finished
• You’ll constantly revisit and refine – to keep pace with the market
• What we call the “Continuous Generation Process” – the key to improving your productivity and maintaining your competitive edge

• HIDING COMPLEXITY
  At the heart of Genero Studio is an abstract grammar we call Business Development Language
• As its name suggests, it is purpose-built for business applications
• It embeds SQL and high-level verbs that are user-interface, operating system and database agnostic
• Wizards hide complexity making the creation of web services possible without knowledge of the underlying protocols
• You don’t need to know SOAP
• You don’t need to be able to write WSDLs
• In this way, you code more securely and create fewer bugs
• When you consider that 50% of bugs find their way into production, you’ll be glad that Studio is helping you make a fifth of the bugs you would otherwise be making with rival frameworks
• Developers introduce a fraction of the bugs they would otherwise make with Object Oriented Programming Languages (OOPs)
