wVIEW is an automated system for generating Web applications that relies extensively on document representations and transformations. wVIEW adopts the widely accepted hypermedia design principle that content, navigation, and presentation are separate concerns. Each of these aspects of the design process is controlled by separate declarative specifications. Only the first specification, the content structure specification, which is described using UML, must be provided. However, the wVIEW user is free to add extensions and customization to both the data and navigation models, in order to make the final application suit specific needs. We describe the wVIEW approach and the current prototype which focuses on the data and navigation modelling aspects.
