  • firecat[1] - Server-side JavaScript Web Application Server.

  • Tuxedo (software) [2] Based on the ATMI standard, is one of the original application servers.
  • Tntnet [3] is a web application server for C++. Tntnet comes with a template engine, which allowes the programmer to embed C++-code into HTML pages. Since these templates are not compiled at runtime, but like classic C++-programs in a separate compile-cycle, the resulting programs are native and therefore very fast. Tntnet is multithreaded and supports object lifetime through scoped variables.
  • cppserv C++ servlet container
  • wt-toolkit Ajax toolkit for C++


  • GNUstepWeb [4]WebObjects 4.5 compatible, released under the LGPL.
  • SOPE [5] inspired by WebObjects extended with Zope concepts, used as Foundation for OpenGroupware.
