Hi there Folks I've been digging around Vaadin source code and the way the move to support compilation for HTML/CSS/JS with Java written only.
Their way of generating source code is pretty similar of what we have in SystemManager(https://vaadin.com/api/com/vaadin/ui/AbstractComponent.html) and UIComponent(https://vaadin.com/api/com/vaadin/ui/Component.html), I guess on my view they had something in mind to be inspired by Flash ecosystem mixing with GWT which is part of the core of it. Some advantages on their project is licensed under Apache, it's open-source and their API is pretty similar like Flex and Swing. That's lead me to one question, should we move on that direction with Falcon or even mxmlc to generate something similar to that? I mean how hard should be to generate text base docs. The core way of vaadin does it's all related to css to create the UI and javascript 1.2 to the engine of script. We shall have to inspire in this project to take cool features it's have and apply some of them in Flex project. I'd love to see some feedback's here. ---------------------------- Igor Costa
