FEAST Overview

FEAST – Framework for Enterprise Application and Supporting Tools –  is a platform for developing distributed applications that comply to the requirements of todays enterprise grade software. A notable difference to other similar platforms currently on the market is that FEAST relies on Qt and C++, which combines operating system independence with high execution speed.

FEAST makes it possible to develop multi-user distributed client-server applications just as easy as Qt-based desktop applications. Developers can concentrate on the business requirements and still build applications that span the whole enterprise or even the Internet.
