The framework is an OOP design having an open architecture, allowing to be extended with other features.
I recommended to use the framework on NetBeans IDE as components for Matisse GUI builder.
"Blocks" has been designed mainly to be used on trading platforms and banking applications.
"Blocks" can be used to create a rich client interface for Client-Server model applications, N-Tier Enterprise applications and ideal for SOA Web Services based applications.
