| Apache Wink |
| |
| Apache Wink is a simple yet solid framework for building RESTful Web services. It is comprised of a Server module and a Client module |
| for developing and consuming RESTful Web services. |
| |
| The <<Wink Server>> module is a complete implementation of the JAX-RS v1.1 specification. On top of this implementation, |
| the Wink Server module provides a set of additional features that were designed to facilitate |
| the development of RESTful Web services. |
| |
| The <<Wink Client>> module is a Java based framework that provides functionality for communicating with RESTful Web services. |
| The framework is built on top of the JDK HttpURLConnection and adds essential features that facilitate the development of such client applications. |
