History
Development started way back in 2004. This was after I had given up trying to use a rich client framework based on drag’n drop, wizard-driven development, which turned out to be absolutely horrifying for someone who really enjoys writing code. This was before the time of Spring, JOOQ, Hibernate and all these excellent frameworks, so I started from scratch, with the aim of using only Java Standard Edition components, JDBC, Swing and RMI.
I’ve been using Codion professionally from day one and have around 70 applications based on it running in production, quite a few mission critical.
