Today we are releasing another important update to CWAB. The Lucene search engine is now integrated into CWAB providing powerful search functionality to users. This is an initial integration of lucene, currently indexing is a manual process done by right-clicking a file/folder and selecting Index. In the future automated indexing would be added. In addition, the app creation process has been significantly improved. It used to take up to two minutes to create an app, that process is now much improved by moving most of the app creation process to the background. We've also added alpha-level integration of the NetRexx language. CWAB uses the excellent CodeMirror editor. For syntax highlighting we used the Go language mode as a starting point and added the NetRexx keywords. Unfortunately

Today we are releasing a major update to CWAB. From user feedback we realized the separate navigation of Crudbase and file system assets was causing confusion with users. We have now merged Crudbase operations and file system operations into a single navigational view. Users no longer need to think about the Crudbase when developing applications. The Crudbase is now a background feature that a user can get to by right-clicking "Home". A number of workflow improvements have also been introduced that should make working on CWAB an even more pleasant experience. The task deck also now includes a deck that contains links to Youtube video screencasts demonstrating various aspects of the CWAB platform.
