For example, a data visualization application built in Royale can pull data from multiple back-end sources and display it in charts, tables, or other methods of your choice. Business users can drill down into the data for deeper insight and even change the data and have it automatically updated on the back end.</p><img src="/img/EnterpriseClassLevel.png" style="float:left;max-width:50%"></div><div><h2>Enterprise-class programming model</h2><p>Use constructs like strong typing, inheritance, and interfaces to program more efficiently with <a href="https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/features/as3">ActionScript 3.0</a> and <a href="https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/features/mxml">MXML</a>. Extensive mobile and traditional components help speed development. Royale applications can access device capabilities such as GPS, accelerometer, camera, and local database. Enjoy a cross-platform and native experience. Create applications that run consistently across Android and iOS mobile devices, as well as inside web browsers, and on traditional desktop computers. Royale gives you cross-platform development efficiency, and your application users enjoy an uncompromised native experience on each platform.</p></div><div><img src="/img/royale_spheres_transp.png" style="float:right;max-width:50%"><h2>Strands & Beads</h2><p>Royale is designed from scratch with a composition philosophy that gives you lightweight UI components with all the functionality you need for your applications, but without any features you will not use and that only add extra weight.</p><ul><li><a href="https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/features/strands-and-beads"><i class="fa fa-book"></i> Learn more about Strands & Beads</a></li><li><a href="https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/features/payg"><i class="fa fa-book"></i> Learn more about Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG)</a></li></ul></div><div><h2>Jewel Components</h2><p><a href="https://apache.github.io/royale-docs/component-sets/jewel">Jewel</a> is an all new UI component set, created with design and responsiveness in mind.
