Hi Thomas, It's really cool feature to provide such "visual tool" to create and update configuration files. But I think running a local server complicates things and it's not very handy.
I just found one interesting project which could help on this - Appcelerator Titanium [1]. This an open source competitor of Adobe AIR. One interesting thing about Titanium that it has own Module API which allows extending application using Python/Ruby scripts and you can call them from JavaScript. [2,3] It's really powerful thing and what's exactly we need here. I played with Titanium and my qooxdoo applications worked great on this platform. Any volunteers on this? :) Best regards, Siarhei [1] - http://titaniumapp.com/ [2] - http://news.appcelerator.com/appcelerator-announces-release-of-titanium-preview-release-2 [3] - http://www.vimeo.com/3360270 On May 7, 2009, at 6:21 PM, thron7 wrote: > Hi Christian, > > panyasan wrote: >> Hi, >> >> scouting through the 0.8 SVN SDK code, I see a "buildtool" >> component which >> looks interesting.
