SpeedScript is an interpreted, block-structured, and statement-oriented programming language based on ABL (Advanced Business Language). It provides native access to the OpenEdge RDBMS and DataServers, as well as to Web servers for Web page input and output.

SpeedScript enables you to quickly prototype, develop, and maintain re-usable application business logic. It also includes object-oriented features like super procedures and dynamic queries and buffers.

Depending on your application and the type of Web objects you are building, the AppBuilder can automatically generate some or all of the SpeedScript used to build your Web objects.
