GUI for RPGLE Webservice Development on iseries OS V7R1 - web-services

I am researching the best GUI interface to deploy to developer laptop(s) to develop and deploy RPGLE webservice processes on an iseries currently running OS V7R1.
We have future plans to migrate to OS V7R2 or V7R3 but are currently limited to the scope of the V7R1.
Known options: Websphere, i navigator, rdp .......
Have not used any of these to develop webservices.

I worked with two webservice frameworks in RPG until now.
Here you can find an OSS-Framework similar to javax servlets
Here you can find information about the IWS for IBMi developed by IBM

How to build APK (signed) from hybrid app made in Framework7

I've experience in building native android applications. But I'm completely new to hybrid application development and Would like to use Framework7.
I'm starting to use it. I don't know how to build the project and get an install-able file (or for distribution in playstore).
Any help is appreciated.
Cordova is a good way to start.
When I used to develop Hybrid apps, Cordova was the way to generate APKs.
I really enjoyed it, since it has a lot of Plugins, like FireBase Cloud Messaging Plugin to receive notifications within your hybrid App. It's more than a simple WebView App.
Apache Cordova is an open-source mobile development framework. It allows you to use standard web technologies - HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript for cross-platform development. Applications execute within wrappers targeted to each platform, and rely on standards-compliant API bindings to access each device's capabilities such as sensors, data, network status, etc.
Use Apache Cordova if you are:
a mobile developer and want to extend an application across more than
one platform, without having to re-implement it with each platform's
language and tool set.
a web developer and want to deploy a web app that's packaged for
distribution in various app store portals.
a mobile developer interested in mixing native application components
with a WebView (special browser window) that can access device-level
APIs, or if you want to develop a plugin interface between native and
WebView components.
Here are all the steps needed to start with Cordova https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/guide/cli/index.html
Also, I used to follow these steps to generate a signed APK so it's possible to launch it on Google Play.
How do I put my cordova application on the android play store?

Change default container in scalatra web application in eclipse

I am a total beginner with developing in scalatra, eclipse, sbt, web services, etc...coming from a proprietary SAP Abap world where everything is different. Recently I found interest in developing in scala and SAP opens its SAP Cloud Platform, so I tried some tutorials to create some very simple web applications.
I could manage to create the sample tutorial with scalatra and sbt.
Scalatra includes Jetty as a default container.
I want to use Eclipse as SAP uses it as a standard development environment. I managed also to install the sbt-eclipse plugin and could import the project into the eclipse environment.
But now I'm stuck.
How can I change the web-container (server) to Tomcat which is installed locally in my eclipse environment?
It is a Scala project, so I cannot use the option which is available in a J2EE project to define the Target Runtime Environment in the properties.
Ultimately I would like to deploy it to my Hana trial account at SAP Cloud Platform. Any hint is appreciated.

Migrate a BEA 8.1 Web Service project to Eclipse

I have a kind of a "giant" web service built with SOAP, EJB 2.1 and we use BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 as IDE.
It is a critical web service, used by different countries and it access more than 15 data sources to generate a XML with some information.
We want to migrate the application to use a better IDE for development like Eclipse, and we also want to use a dependency managment tool like maven and add a dependency injection framework like Spring.
The project is divided in a main web service project and some other project with EJB 2.1 used to extract information of some data sources.
What would be the best way to migrate this project, without breaking the interface(wsdl) of the web service?
Any help or hint is welcome.

XML web service running on Ubuntu

VS Studio 2005
I have developed an application that will need to access a web service.
I will be developing the web service. However, the platform will be Ubuntu running Apache Tomcat server.
I have 2 questions:
1) Can I deploy a MS XML web service to run on a Ubuntu Server?
2) If I can't. I will have to develop a Java Web Service. However, my application that is written in VS C# 2005 will need to access it will be a windows application. How can my application access a Java Web Service?
Many thanks for any advice,
If you want cross-platform compatibility, you can only deploy .net code that runs under Mono. The best way to check this is to actually develop the code under Mono and use Mono to test it. So, don't use Visual Studio. Sorry.
There is no problem with interfacing pieces of code written in two different languages. You can use XMLRPC, a RESTful API, or a proprietary protocol. I'm sure there are other ways for the two to "talk", as well.

Django Projects as Desktop applications : how to?

How to make Django projects packaged as desktop applications?
I found some tutorials, but is there any solution as DjangoKit , for Linux and Windows?
List of related tutorials :
Deploying a Django app on the desktop
Django application as a stand-alone desktop application
This project started when I needed to
distribute a self contained user
installable Windows demo of a Django
application
dbuilder.py
Edit: Another alternative is Super Zippy, it takes a Python package and its pure Python dependencies and transforms them all into a single executable file.
You might want to look into Appcelerator's (link) Titanium Desktop for developing web apps on the desktop.
It's fully cross platform, Linux, Mac OSX, Windows.
It's supports running Python, Ruby, and JavaScript code in your application all concurrently interacting with one anther in one application. It's pretty sweet.
(Full disclosure, I'm the founder of ToDesktop. I think this is a helpful answer though)
If your Django app is already deployed as a web app then you can wrap the web app in Electron.
If the web app does not need to be distributed to users (i.e.. you don't need an installer or code signing) then Nativefier is great for that. It's free and open-source. I made a Nativefier guide here.
If you're distributing to users then you'll probably want an installer and code signing and auto-updates for Electron. ToDesktop will do all that for you without any coding or configuration.
There's a comparison of the two here.
