A brief History
Founded in 1998, Curl is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Curl has over 400 customers and 40 partners worldwide.
Curl develops and maintains the Curl Rich Internet Application (RIA) platform.
The Curl Rich Internet Application (RIA) platform specializes in presenting information to people and helping them work with it.
Introduction
Curl is an object-oriented programming language designed to replace HTML,JavaScript,and related tools as a means for creating interactive Web pages.
Curl is a new language for creating web documents with almost any sort of content, from simple formatted text to complex interactive applets.
Curl content language provides "one-stop shopping" where the whole range of content and behavior requirements of Web applications can be satisfied within one framework.
Curl applications do not require changes in the back-end infrastructure used today for Web-based enterprise applications, mostly built upon J2EE or Microsoft's .Net.
Curl provides a new client-side technology fully complementary to these server-side alternatives.
Curl's unique and powerful layout and styling capabilities help you build sophisticated user interfaces quickly and express them in compact, concise code.

The work described here explores the design of Curl, a single, coherent linguistic basis for expression of Web content at levels ranging from simple formatted text to contemporary object-oriented programming. Curl is a new language for creating web documents with almost any sort of content, from simple formatted to text to complex interactive applets. Curl is part of a research effort aimed at eliminating discontinuities from the function/sophistication curve. This yields an authoring environment in which (1) incremental functionality requires incremental skill acquisition, and (2) a consistent semantics avoids communication obstacles between separately encapsulated fragments of content. We characterize Curl as a "gentle slope system" because it makes it easy to transition from one point to another in the function/sophistication spectrum..
