Appcelerator is an open source software company that develops products and solutions to help enterprises rapidly develop rich Internet applications (RIAs) and SOA-based (service oriented architecture-based) Web services. The company’s Appcelerator Platform is an RIA and SOA-based services development platform that enables developers to create Ajax and DHTML RIAs by adding expressions to standard HTML – eliminating the need for Javascript.
