ThinWire is an open source, Java based web application framework that uses Ajax techniques to give Web Applications the look and feel of traditional GUI applications.
ThinWire attempts to differentiate itself from the plethora of Ajax frameworks by bringing the event-driven programming model of desktop applications to web programming. The source code of a ThinWire based application will more closely resemble that of a traditional desktop GUI application than it will a web application. ThinWire handles all the web rendering and browser/server communication automatically.
