Codename: Hyperion

Abstract

Hyperion GUI

One of the most remarkable visual differences between Hymalia and Hyperion is the Web-GUI that has been developed new from scratch. The GUI does not render on the server any longer but it is built upon html/css/javascript that renders everything dynamicly in the browser and communicates via the JSON data-interchange format with the server.
