devon4ws - a programming language and online IDE for devonfw

We're proud to announce devon4ws, a programming language and online IDE for devonfw.

devon4ws is Capgemini's own Enterprise ready, web scale, programming language, compiler, virtual machine and online IDE.

devon4ws IDE

Why yet another language and IDE? Because most major Digital giants have launched their own languages and tool-chain:

  • Oracle has Java
  • Google has Go
  • Apple has Swift and Objective C
  • Microsoft created a whole set of languages, like C#, F#, Visual Basic etc.
  • Facebook strongly supports OCaml and EcmaScript 2015+ (through Babel)
  • AT&T is still a major supporter of C++

etc etc

So Capgemini, as one of the world's premier Consulting, Technology, Digital Transformation Services companies could not stay behind. So we have adopted a strong Industry Standard language and incorporated it in devonfw, the Open Source Standard Development Platform for Capgemini Europe and India.
