Hello Product Hunt ! ๐—ข๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜† It all started when I chose to implement a web-based desktop for an EPFL postgraduate course here in Switzerland, and nothing Iโ€™d call commercial-grade came out of it. Thatโ€™s when I started thinking that the Web platform might be missing a feature or two when it comes to its application support. And here we are a couple of lightbulb moments later. ๐—™๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€ Let me present to you Qworum, a commercial-grade B2B PaaS that aims to fill the gap between what the Web platform offers, and what applications require. Qworum currently brings interactive and composable APIs, distributed applications, and application modularity to the Web, with more to come. ๐—”๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ด๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป Qworum is based on an expired software patent which Iโ€™ve authored, and it has won a silver medal at an inventorsโ€™ expo here in Geneva Switzerland. ๐—ง๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ป๐—ผ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ด๐˜† Qworum is a new runtime for web browsers. Whereas the JavaScript runtime attaches itself to web pages, the Qworum runtime ties itself to browser tabs. ๐—–๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฒ Qworum is a general purpose technology that is applicable across industries, and as a result Qworumโ€™s target customer base is relatively large: * Companies that build internal applications (many mid- to large-sized companies). * B2B SaaS companies. * Third parties that build and sell Qworum APIs on top of public SaaS APIs. Thatโ€™s right, Qworum is a potential revenue source for B2B entrepreneurs. ๐—–๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป Use this promo code when subscribing to Qworum Alloy and get 3 months free: PRODUCTHUNT Offer valid through October 15.

@star_boat Hi Star. > ๐˜Œ๐˜น๐˜ค๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ ๐˜˜๐˜ธ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ! I've taken the e-shop application offline since recording the video linked above, but if you want to see a live demo, here's another one which is still online, feel free to click on the link on the upper right: https://github.com/doga/qworum-a... > ๐˜ด๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข ๐˜จ๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ Thanks, finally someone has noticed :) To me Qworum is the Web for applications, it's a Web variant that I'm calling "The Service Web". So, what is the current Web, then? Glad you asked: to me the current Web is "The Document Web"; it is still fundamentally a content platform and not really an application platform, and that, despite JavaScript.

Congrats on the launch! Qworum looks like a really interesting tool for building B2B apps. Love the modular API approach! Quick question tho - is there any specific setup needed to use the runtime across different industries? Thanks!

@charlotteelisesinclair Thanks Charlotte! > ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฌ๐˜ด ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜บ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ I'd say Qworum is more of a ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—บ for running applications and APIs than a tool. In terms of tooling, Qworum has a VS Code extension for authoring Qworum scripts in XML format, but using it is optional. > ๐˜“๐˜ฐ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฅ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ณ ๐˜ˆ๐˜—๐˜ ๐˜ข๐˜ฑ๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ข๐˜ค๐˜ฉ!

The difference is that Qworum runtime instances are attached to browser tabs rather than the individual web pages.
