dReveal Overview

Introducing dReveal, a powerful and versatile data visualization tool. dReveal offers two main applications to cater to different user needs: the web application for end-users seeking effortless report execution and the desktop authoring tools for those who wish to craft custom reports from scratch.

The desktop authoring tools provide users with full control over the report creation process. With these tools, users can define how the report accesses the data source and establish the underlying data model that the report will utilize. This level of flexibility empowers users to design reports tailored precisely to their unique requirements and business insights.

On the other hand, the web applications serve as the execution platform for the reports generated in the desktop authoring tools. End-users can easily access and execute the reports directly within their web environment. This approach simplifies the user experience, allowing them to effortlessly interact with the reports, gaining valuable insights without the need for in-depth technical knowledge.

In essence, dReveal's desktop authoring tools are responsible for defining the 'how' of report presentation and data retrieval, providing the groundwork for tailored and comprehensive reports. Conversely, the web application serves as the dynamic execution product, allowing users to access, select, and interact with the reports created in the authoring tools via a user-friendly web interface.
