zApp is an programming environment for quickly developing user-customizeable and scriptable applications. Applications developed using zApp can be freely distributed without any royalty requirements. Any end user can run your binary application created by zApp. If a end user also had a developer's copy of zApp, they may customize your application to futher suit their needs.
zApp programs can be written using any scripting language that is supported by Windows. Windows ships with built-in support for Visual Basic Script (VBScript) and Java Script (jscript). Support for scripting languages such as Perl, Python, ReXX, and many others can be downloaded from the Internet. Other zApp developers can also easily create plugins for your application using any of these scripting languages.
zApp ships with a rich library of visual components. These components have features far beyond the plain visual components normally used for Windows application development. For example, every text box in a zApp program can be enabled for built-in spellchecking. All zApp components are also data-aware and can interact with a large variety of database sources.
The user interface of a program written using zApp can be easily modified. The user interface is contained within an XML layout file that can be edited with any text editor.

- Rich Visual Components
