Currently, an HTML document acts more as a configuration tool for launching a web application, incorporating numerous technologies beyond mere hypertext. The web's evolution narrates the transformation of the simple hypertext concept into a comprehensive platform for application development. While this progression has unlocked vast opportunities for creativity and business, it has simultaneously erected barriers for individuals not deeply versed in web development, preventing them from easily creating web resources.

There was a period when developers' needs surpassed the capabilities of the "native" web, necessitating additional tools for tackling development challenges. Examples include JQuery, CommonJS, CSS preprocessors, bundlers, and UI libraries with exclusive component models like React.

However, the web platform, encompassing language standards, browser APIs, and Node has significantly evolved, offering solutions that obsolete many previously essential external tools. It now delivers these solutions more efficiently, securely, and user-friendly. Despite these advancements, the web industry's inertia and the potential conflict between new features and earlier, popular tools pose a paradox.

DWA engine works very similar to PHP (hypertext preprocessor), but in addition it can be automatically processed by Edge CDN (JAM Cloud), and to be bound to the blockchain with some metadata containing information about contributions and other. Other words, it's like a cloud PHP with a same syntax as at frontend, with ability of isomorphic modules usage.
