First, thank you for the new site. It looks great. Is the source code for squeak.org available for people to putter with and try out new ideas? thx. tty |
I don't know any of the specifics for the squeak.org site (Chris
Cunnington may be able to give you a better answer), but I know that the new site is done with Altitude, which is MIT licensed and freely available: http://news.squeak.org/2012/07/23/altitude-in-the-cloud/ http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2012-July/164881.html Dave > First, thank you for the new site.

I assumed Next Generation like Startrek TNG :-))

ChrisC pointed out that the Altitude image etc is at http://www.chriscunnington.com/squeak.org.zip Use the do-it in the squeaksite.st file to start up, aim your browser at localhost:8264 and play away. Frankly the combination of fairly raw html assembly and CSS scares the hell out of me and I ran away, very fast. tim -- tim Rowledge; [hidden email]; http://www.rowledge.org/tim Don't sweat petty things....or pet sweaty things. |

The Seaside community doesn't seem interested in going in this direction, though, so it's not likely to become a future version of Seaside.

Interesting, so does the JSON participate in control of the UI (HTML)
elements or is it strictly domain information? What do you use for your JSON parsing and generating?

On the client, Javascript code combines the JSON data with templates to render the UI; the JSON itself contains no code, it's just data. It might not be strictly domain models, though; it sometimes includes UI-oriented data.

I think it is important to have the source to the site to encourage "crazy ideas" being developed by interested parties. If somehow, I get the time, I was thinking along the lines of "user distro's" that are tailored to the quirks of a user's interests--things like funsqueak, or the Seaside all-in-one. I know that Nicolai Suslov has his interests that are interesting. It would be very helpful to have a cut of whatever Eliot is developing on available for download as a zip. Steve Wessel's has done some interesting things I do know that without the source code, it would never happen even if I do get the time. Thanks again for the source. tty
