Topincs is a software for the rapid development of web databases and web applications. It is based on LAMP and the semantic technology Topic Maps. A Topincs web database makes information accessible through browsing very much like a wiki. Editing a page on the subject rather than using markup editing. A web database can be adapted to a web application to provide specific user groups to a contextualized approach to the data. All modeling and development tasks are performed in the web browser. No other development tools are necessary. The server requires Apache, MySQL and PHP. The client works on any standard-compliant web browser on desktops, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. The layout is automatically adjusted to smaller screens. The programmatic access to data is done via a virtual object-oriented programming interface which is set in a few minutes. It is more than generated. Portions of the database can be pulled into memory to accelerate bulk access.
Topincs can be used in a private network for any purpose for free. The use of a public network is restricted to non-commercial applications.
