Do you use Rapid Application Development?

Ever wondered how it can help you create your apps that much faster?

Gregory Warneford discusses how Rapid Application Development helps him and the US Navy.

Rapid Prototype Application Development at GDIT

General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) has been using LiveCode and its MetaCard antecedent for several years in its Newport, Rhode Island office.  LiveCode is used by GDIT Naval Operations Subject Matter Experts (SME) to develop functional prototype applications.
