Wakanda is a Full-Stack JavaScript Platform to develop and run web or mobile apps.
It is based on open standards technologies like AngularJS, Ionic, nodejs, TypeScript ... and is supported on Linux, Microsoft Windows and macOS.
Wakanda consists of a stack of tools and technologies:
Starting in 2008 with the server, Wakanda was first presented at The Ajax Experience in 2009 and then the same year at JSConf.eu. A private Developer Preview was made accessible in 2010 with a first version of the Wakanda Studio including a Model Designer and a GUI Designer. Wakanda came to public attention in June 2011 with a new Developer Preview, with a second public Developer Preview announced during the "Wakanday - JS.everywhere(Boston, October, 2011)" conference, and the first Beta on December, 15th. Wakanda is available as a Live Release version since March 15, 2012.
