abstract = {{The Web-based Rapid Application Platform (WRAP) aims to provide a centralized, zero-code, drag-n-drop means of GUI creation. It was developed at CERN to address the high maintenance cost of supporting multiple evolving GUI-technologies and minimising duplication of effort by those developing different GUI applications. WRAP leverages web technologies and existing controls infrastructure to provide a drop-in solution for a range of use cases. However, providing a centralized platform to cater for diverse needs and to interact with a multitude of data sources presented performance, design, and deployment challenges. This paper describes how the WRAP architecture has evolved to address these challenges, overcoming technological limitations, increasing usability and the resulting end-user adoption. }},
