Frankendoc's mother tongue is Javascript
Well, actually, Coffeescript but it's js anyways
In order to talk to other languages it has Minions

What's a Minion?

A Minion is a small app native to a particular platform
It talks to Frankendoc via websockets

Protocol

A Minion uses a limited subset of the language
It only allows to Create objects, and Execute methods
The arguments passed to the methods and return values are simple types
The idea is to keep it simple forcing to write fixture code
It also keeps the protocol lean and easy to implement

Supported Platforms
