"Fast apps Fast"

FOAM3 is the active version of FOAM.

The FOAM1 website still contains many useful demos and videos (but some links may be broken).

Feature Oriented Active Modeller

FOAM is a modeling tool and class based object system. To use FOAM, you create a model of your class by describing the properties, methods, event topics, listeners, and dependencies of your class. FOAM takes this model and generates a usable JavaScript class along with several companion features such as database support and network marshaling.

While FOAM is written in JavaScript, it can be used to generate code for any language or platform, including Android Java and iOS Swift.
