Introduction
Imagine a world where users can bring their ideas to life with unprecedented speed and ease, with reduced timelines for their deliverables. In today’s dynamic business landscape, agility and rapid innovation are more pressing than ever.
Developing microservices-based cloud-native applications will equip enterprises to foray into new avenues that will enable better handling of business needs by improving efficiency, through increased scalability and flexibility. Industry-standard technologies are transforming at an unfathomable pace and to deliver and develop timely and high-quality applications, the demand for a highly automated development platform is gaining momentum.
Various studies suggest that mid-sized and large enterprises rapidly adopt low-code development technologies for:
Faster application delivery
High demand for tech talent
Growing borderless (hybrid workspace)
Overview
TCS MasterCraftTM for rapid web application development is a platform that has low code development capabilities to accelerate the development of modern, microservices-based, cloud-ready, responsive applications in the latest technology through visual modeling and wizard-based drag-and-drop user interface.
TCS MasterCraftTM provides a state-of-the-art user interface to visually design and generate responsive web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG)--compliant web applications using drag-and-drop editors. The product also provides a wizard-based interface for developing back-end services and data layers seamlessly integrating with the user interfaces through a visual editor.
In accordance with the market needs, TCS MasterCraftTM regularly upgrades the supported technology stack so that the application development platform users with low code capabilities can quickly upgrade their existing applications with minimum business disruptions.
Our capability
Customize UIs for new and existing applications: Users can create customized UIs for the new application using drag-and-drop widgets and visual editors. For existing applications, users must import the UI as a wireframe or extensible markup language (XML) created using external tools. Click to learn more about UI Modernization using TCS MasterCraftTM.
Develop a service layer model: Users can leverage the Service Modeler to accelerate the development of the service layer model and the business functional layer. The model also supports multiple databases, including relational database management system (RDBMS) and not-only SQL (NoSQL) databases.
Create and edit industry-compliant applications: Users can leverage TCS’ proven code generation models and create code compliant with industry standards through automation in their choice of technology. An Intelligent code editor enables users to customize and edit business logic through intuitive and predictive features.
Execute end-to-end application testing: Users can generate JUnit test cases for all boundary conditions and consumer-driven contracts (CDC) for end-to-end testing of APIs. It executes react-based test cases with absolute automation for user-interface testing.
Tailor UI and microservices packaging: Users can package the generated UI screen and microservices based on their preferences into Java Archive (JAR) or Web Archive (WAR) files or as docker containers using the deployment editor.
Deploy and manage applications on-prem and cloud: Users can generate deployment script for Kubernetes container manager to deploy the generated application on major cloud platforms and on-premises data centers.
