What is Visual Coffee?
Visual Coffee is an java-applet-development-environment, which for itself
is written in Java.
Similar to Visual Basic and other graphical development environments
the user composes an applet by placing control-objects
(buttons, textfields, ...) into the bare applet.
Java-Sourcecode can be added in methods, which are assigned to events
of the control-objects.
Our Project
The goal of this project was to provide an operating-system-independent
environment to delvelop Java-Applets.We started in October 1996 at the
Institute of Computer Graphics,
Vienna University of Technology, and have now completed the last stage
of our 4 stage schedule.
Visual Coffee was written in Java 1.1, which offers a wider range of
functionality than 1.0, especially the AWT (Alternative Window Kit) - Interface.
You can download Visual Coffee as zip or tgz-file:

Documentation
To see how to develop an Java-Applet with Visual Coffee use the Online-Manual
in html-format. An other way for getting used with Visual Coffee is to
step through our short tutorial (german) where
a sample applet is constructed.
If you only want to see some results of Visual Coffee try the example-page
where some sample-applets are embedded.
We would be pleased if you send us any comments or questions about this
