Javascript libraries using JAX-RS implementations

This is the faster and easier way to develop applications without reinventing the wheel (with an expense of the fact that we don’t learn Javascript but we learn to use a library).

On Your Mark, Get Set, Go!
There are now only a couple of days left until the Java Team at Kentor takes over official responsibility for the management and continued development of one of the most important systems within health care management in Stockholm.

We will be starting a new round of development almost immediately (we have been planning for it throughout the Spring), and the development will continue throughout the rest of the year. So everyone get to your starting positions…. On your mark, get set, go!
