<h2>What is Molly?</h2>
<p>Molly is a framework for the rapid development of information and service portals targeted at mobile internet devices. The framework follows a “batteries included” philosophy, featuring a wide variety of applications and connectors to common and standards-based systems including the <a href="http://sakaiproject.org">Sakai Virtual Learning Environment</a>.</p>
<h2>Why choose Molly?</h2>
<p>
In short, it's Free, easy to deploy, has many features out-of-the-box and relies on proven, low-risk technologies. Oh, and it's award winning!
</p>
<h3>Molly works with any mobile device</h3>
<p>
Molly is a web-based application framework targeting all phones, 'smart' or otherwise. Native applications can only target a few
classes of device, leaving a large number of potential users unable to use the service.
</p><p>
Wherever possible, Molly detects the device being used and tailors the page to match the phone's capabilities.
</p>
<hr />
<h3>Out-of-the-box support for many data providers and systems</h3>

<p>To help you get started, Molly has built-in connectors for various interfaces and systems, including <strong>LDAP</strong>, <strong>Z39.50</strong>,
<strong>Google Search Appliances</strong>, <strong>OpenStreetMap</strong>, and even <strong>real-time bus, rail and Tube information</strong>.</p>

<h3>Open-source license</h3>
<img style="float:right;" src="images/OSI-Approved-License-100x137.png" alt="OSI Approved Licence Logo" width="100" height="137"/>
<p>Molly is distributed under the terms of the <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html">Apache License v2</a> and actively encourages contributions from any and all institutions.</p>
<p>Being open-source, you are not tied to maintenance contracts with a third party, nor need you rely upon them to satisfy your use cases.</p>
<p>Unlike many proprietary solutions, Molly allows you to keep your institutional data on-site without the risk of data being exposed by a third party.</p>

<h3>Standards compliant and native app-ready</h3>

create a native application or remix your data to suit any need.</p>
