Developing web client JavaScript applications with WebBroker on the server

Many Delphi developers think that if you need to develop a web solution, you have to look for something other than Delphi.

What you need is a good framework to work with. In this recipe, we'll look at the WebBroker technology, available since Delphi 4, and consume it from a JavaScript application. Let's start!
