A Web application based on the JViews Gantt Web technology is also known as a JViews Gantt Web application; this application can display and interact with a diagram view directly on a Web browser.

A JViews Gantt Web application can be implemented using two different approaches:

JViews JSF Web applications benefit from the JSF request-driven MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework with its well defined server-side rendering life cycle and its component-driven UI design model.

JViews JavaScript Web applications are implemented directly using the JViews JavaScript object library on the client side, communicating with the image servlet on the server side through HTTP requests for image rendering. JViews JavaScript Web applications are more difficult to implement, but offer more flexibility both on the client and server side.

Both approaches provide equivalent sets of functions that use the asynchronous characteristics of Ajax to develop highly responsive, highly interactive Web applications. For more details on the differences between JViews JSF and JViews JavaScript, see JViews Web technology architecture.
