docs/
Documentation, including an in-depth discussion of the design and goals of the project.
example/

harness/
Files related to setting up a local develoment environment. Currently a nodejs script that will allow you to run a webserver that serves up the various sites contained here.

This document describes an architecture for Open Web Applications. These are applications constructed using standard web technologies including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, which can run in any modern web browser Like today's web applications, they are made with a combination of server-side logic and client-side logic.

The system presented here provides for both free and paid applications. It presumes that there will be multiple stores from which users may install applications. Developers are free to list their applications on multiple stores and to enter independent relationships with each. Developers should be free to self-publish their application, or create their own curated application directory. Applications deployed using this system should work on desktop and mobile platforms, and should degrade gracefully when advanced browser capabilities are not present.
