<h2>Why Pivot?</h2>
- <p><img src="images/pivot_screen.jpg" alt="Pivot" /></p>
<p>
- Pivot applications are written using a combination of Java and XML and can be
- run either as an applet or as a standalone (optionally offline) desktop
- application. Pivot includes features that make building modern GUI applications
- much easier, including declarative UI, data binding, effects and transitions,
- and web services integration.
+ Pivot is the only RIA framework that enables developers to build applications
+ for the Java platform using Java or any other JVM scripting language, such as
+ JavaScript, Groovy, or Scala. Pivot is also the only truly open RIA framework:
+ it is completely open source, and is driven entirely by the software
+ development community.<br/><br/>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Pivot allows developers to work with the tools and APIs they already know,
+ reducing technology sprawl and streamlining solution technology stacks.
