About

Vely is a general-purpose framework for rapid development of high-performance software. It is especially well suited for web applications. Vely is declarative and functional, with single-line statements performing entire tasks. It's simple to design, write and maintain applications.

Vely is great for web applications, command-line programs, cloud applications, middleware, distributed systems, database applications, IOT or anything else. Create and manage application servers as quickly as command-line programs.

Vely supports querying databases, file manipulation, network, string manipulation, outputting data, encryption, JSON, REST, distributed computing, time, memory structures like hash and FIFO, program execution, regex, memory management, SSL/TSL, encoding/decoding, error handling, web servers, request handling, daemonizing, web development like cookies, input parameters, uploading and downloading of files, URL parameter parsing etc. In short, lots of very common and useful tasks you need all the time.

Vely statements are easy to read and write, designed to immediately give you a clear idea about what they do, even if you've never seen Vely code. They are more like a natural language than typical programming code. This is important not just if you're starting with Vely, but also for maintenance, when someone works with the code years later. You write Vely statements inside skeleton C code so there is no need to learn anything new about the layer underneath; C is quite simple and well-known.

Vely uses well-known standard libraries like cURL, OpenSSL, crypto, FastCGI, PCRE2, native database libraries from MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite, for compliance, performance and reliability. Use simple API to connect to a Vely application server from elsewhere, and use existing libraries in Vely applications.
