A Linked Data Application Framework to Enable Rapid Prototyping
Abstract
Application developers, in our experience, tend to hesitate when dealing with linked data technologies. To reduce their initial hurdle and enable rapid prototyping, we propose in this paper a framework for building linked data applications. Our approach especially considers the participation of web developers and non-technical users without much prior knowledge about linked data concepts. Web developers are supported with bidirectional RDF to JSON conversions and suitable CRUD endpoints. Non-technical users can browse websites generated from JSON data by means of a template language. A prototypical open source implementation demonstrates its capabilities.
