Rappture Toolkit

Rappture is a toolkit supporting Rapid application infrastructure, making it quick and easy to develop powerful scientific applications. Your underlying simulator can be written in C/C++, Fortran, MATLAB/Octave, R, Java, Perl, Python, or Tcl. Once you describe the input/output for your simulator, Rappture handles the rest, generating a graphical interface automatically based on your description. The resulting application is easy to deploy on ​http://nanohub.org and other hubs based on the ​HUBzero platform, so a large community of users can access the application through a web browser.
