About

Brook framework is the Pascal framework for web applications. Release 4.0 is compatible with FreePascal. The new 5.0 also has Delphi compatibility but is still in development. BrookFramework 4.0 is pure Pascal. You don't need to leave your preferred programming language. Further, unless otherwise specified mean 4.0 version.

It's complete: simple actions or configurable actions for database access, advanced routing features, wizard for Lazarus, support for i18n, high compatibility with JSON structures, easy and elegant REST implementation, plugins for varied needs, extensible and decoupled brokers... In fact, you have several reasons to adopt Brook as your web development framework.

Features

  • Advanced routes management – Actions are performed by means of routes. Brook knows how to receive a request and choose the correct URL and the correct method to reply to it.
  • Integrated data persistance – Brook offers a table object where data can be handled. Less instantiations, less coding, with an elegant syntax.
  • JSON native supportJSON is widespread in the web for data exchange purposes. You will really appreciate Brooks' good JSON support.
  • REST architecture supportREST is an architecture able to simplify and standardize data requests and replies. Brook is powerful even if you don't use REST – but you will want to use it.
  • Lazarus wizards for installation and usage - With Lazarus, development is easier; with the Brook wizards, only a few clicks are required to start and configure your Brook projects.

Demos

If you want to see Brook in action, then take a look a database demo here and a simple chat here.

  • Captcha – This plugin provides the handling of verification images, usually to block bot access on login pages.
  • MGeoIP – This plugin allows you to identify the name of the country or city where IPs reside.
