Hi all, I worked on a way to do wpf/development the rails way. It’s heavily inspired by rucola and its interaction with interface builder. I created and will finish this framework when there is more possible with databinding between DLR languages and XAML. you can find it on github. [http://github.com/casualjim/sails/tree/master](http://github.com/casualjim/sails/tree/master) If people think this is a great idea and want to pitch in all help is welcome of course 🙂 If you hate it please let me know and why. The readme: Sails ---

FYI, there’s already a framework named “Sails” for Java: > **[Build Enterprise Software with No-Code (Best Tools) | AppMaster](https://appmaster.io/blog/build-enterprise-software-with-no-code)** > > Do you want to learn how to build enterprise software with no-code tools?
