Web Application Frameworks
A web application framework (WAF) is a software framework that is designed to support the development of dynamic websites, web applications and web services. The framework aims to alleviate the overhead associated with common activities performed in Web development. For example, many frameworks provide libraries for database access, templating frameworks and session management, and they often promote code reuse. For a comparison of concrete web application frameworks, see Comparison of web application frameworks.

Famous quotes containing the words web and/or application:
“The web of domination has become the web of Reason itself, and this society is fatally entangled in it.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
““Five o’clock tea” is a phrase our “rude forefathers,” even of the last generation, would scarcely have understood, so completely is it a thing of to-day; and yet, so rapid is the March of the Mind, it has already risen into a national institution, and rivals, in its universal application to all ranks and ages, and as a specific for “all the ills that flesh is heir to,” the glorious Magna Charta.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
