Bottom line! Web environments were not intended to be used as a way to develop applications. The web evolved layer after layer, trying to close the gap between web environments and the desktop. After many years of evolution, the underlying concepts of web environments are still limiting the ability to provide a solid basis for web application development. While web concepts are left lacking for developing applications, desktop environments have always been there, providing a much more productive way to develop complex applications.
Visual WebGui offers you the same tools and capabilities that were designed for developing desktop applications reengineered to work over HTTP. Under the hood, it provides the same legacy HTTP request/response interface that standard browsers can utilize but it is exposed to you, the developer, as plain old reliable desktop concepts. You get to enjoy the richness and effectiveness of a desktop development environment without losing any of the capabilities that you enjoyed when you developed using web environments. Although it is presented as a desktop like framework, Visual WebGui is an extension to ASP.NET and lets you combine and use the best of both worlds.
