Steedos Platform 17+

=== Click, Not Code ===

Traditional programming, denotes the means of programming by using certain coding languages, to tell a computer exactly how to perform an action.

On the other hand, declarative programming accomplishes the same results by basically telling the computer the end result and letting the computer figure out how to get there.

Steedos is such an declarative programming platform. Steedos empowers business owners with all of the tools of a developer, without requiring an advanced skill set.

With drag-and-drop simplicity, just about anyone can create apps that automate business processes. The apps you create for your business can be deployed on mobile, tablet and web, be simple or complex, and connect to nearly any data source.

=== Based on Metadata ===

Metadata is core to the steedos infrastructure. Metadata relates to the objects, fields, configurations, code, logic, and page layouts that go into building the information architecture and look and feel of your steedos apps.

Metadata can be imported into Steedos, modified in the product interface, or manipulated via the Steedos Metadata API.

There are several types of Metadata, with each one representing a unique way a business function can be customized. Here are a few broad categories for Metadata types:

1. Data: the core components of the data structure on which most customization is built. E.g. Custom Objects, Fields, and Custom Apps.
2. Programmability: custom code developed on top of the platform. E.g. Buttons, Form Events, Triggers.
3. Presentation: customization on how users interact with the platform. E.g. Components, List View and Page Layouts.
