Hello, The Cloudant proof of concept code is up on https://github.com/cloudant-labs/couchdb/tree/fauxton/src/fauxton. For now don't worry too much about the GUI (we have some wireframes in the works to share soon), the things of interest are:
* modular system for building GUI components, on top of backbone and bootstrap, including the ability to load external modules. * grunt build system, "compiles" into a database or share/www, e.g. can be served out of localhost:5984/_utils/fauxton/index.html * "skin-able" via less * JSON text editor with live linting and error messages using JSHint Obvious things that need working on: * integrating with automake etc for releases * the GUI * developer documentation We'd be interested in what people think, specifically if this is a good foundation to build futon.next on. Barring any show stoppers this will be what we use to build the next Cloudant user dashboard, and it would be good to involve and collaborate with the wider community as early as possible. I'll be around today in the irc meeting today if anyone has any questions or ideas. Cheers Russell & Simon
