As a side note to the thread about the RIA wars, I finished my first Apollo App recently and thought I would share it.
It's a project manager app cleverly named Project Tracker and keeps track of a tree of clients, projects, tasks, subtasks... There's no difference how the app treats any of these anyway, so you can have a task under a client. The "Create Client" button just creates a new item at the root of the tree rather than under the selected node. There's no documentation and I'm not always a usability expert, but it should be pretty easy to use. Each item can have timestamps added via the start/stop button, and an item's time consists of all of it's timestamps plus all of it's children's timestamps, so you can see total time for a client, project, task... And you can filter the time by date. Great for freelancers or those who don't need to tie into any sort of system. Mabye I'll make another version that works with a server and team, but for now this is all. As noted in the other thread, Apollo does require its runtime installed. They will providing a tool to create the system dependant installers (msi, dmg, etc) that can package the app and runtime together, but for now you can grab the Apollo runtime (currently in alpha) at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/apolloruntime.html. My app can be downloaded off my site at http://www.withincode.com/ProjectTracker.air. -- Jacob Wright Within Code LLC _______________________________________________ UPHPU mailing list [email protected] http://uphpu.org/mailman/listinfo/uphpu IRC: #uphpu on irc.freenode.net
