Abstract—Web App surges recently as the HTML technology comes to be well-developed. The development framework of existing platform demands the users’ attention directed towards technique details and duplicated efforts. In order to save the developers’ efforts to the design of App functions and its ease of use, the idea of Model Driven Architecture (MDA) will be extended in the development of Web App. This paper proposes a Web App development framework based on MDA—Model Driven Web App Development Framework (MDWAF). Based on the MDWAF, the development of Web App will focus on the software models. The comprehensive data management of development and release process will be achieved by Cloud Services, and the cross-platform local resources access of Web App will be provided by mobile middleware.

Index Terms—Model Driven Development, Web App, Platform Independent Model, Platform Dependent Model, Model Transformation.
