dashcode

Dashcode has been rumored to exist for a while, but now we know for certain: it’s being bundled with new MacBooks, and some kind soul sent his copy to Cool OS X Apps. It’s way more robust than I expected. Breakpoints, easy interface building (complete with a library of “ooh shiny” components), a GUI for your widget’s PLIST file, and built-in localization. This is awesome. I really ought to start working on version 2 of my Azureus widget.

    Hey Andrew!

    How’s it going? Came across your site the other day (your post re: Ajax arrays/hashes), and thought I’d hit you up. It’s been a while… since SXSW!

    Love the site, btw!

    Hey, Frank. Thanks for the kind words. (Ajax != JavaScript, but I’ll forgive you for that. ;)

    When are you going to put up a blog again? Get on it, man!

    Hahaha… Sorry, I meant to say I saw the link on “Ajaxian”… Damn, that looks bad. You need to allow comment edits. ;)

    I definitely plan on doing it very soon. I always say that, but I’ve got a design I’ve been working on, and hope to put it up shortly.

    How’s it going? We should exchange IM ids…
