formVista is a PHP framework for quickly building sophisticated business web apps. It is also open-source and has dual licensing.
The framework is able to accomplish this due to the implementation of formVista Markup Language (FVML), which is an XML dialect designed to simplify web development tasks. FVML significantly reduces web developers' workloads by combining elements such as HTML, SQL, client side Javascript (including AJAX), validation rules, authentication and business logic into fully-comprehensive components. These components are incredibly versatile—being able to range from simple columnar reports to complex multi-user discussion forums.
FormVista's components are entirely self-contained, enabling junior web designers to place them on properly configured PHP web pages with ease. Thus, businesses are not required to have an extensive development team in order to take advantage of formVista's capabilities.
