If may be generated with pyjamas but I'm not sure how this fulfills your wish to do something that does more than "doesn't do much". I would expect a demo to at least have some typical GUI features on it--or am I completely missing the point of what you're doing? Che

I also already had the impression that pyjamas was a usable and valuable thing, but I felt that if he wanted to show an application it should have showcased the GUI elements like buttons, dropdowns, lists, etc. to make the point about how applications can run either as a desktop GUI app or a web based GUI app. What is shown instead looks like it could have been written w/ just HTML, and has limited interactivity. The pyjamas examples page shows many nice GUI elements that could make it into a non-toy demo app, and I expect this will happen soon, but this demo doesn't quite do it for me, GUI-wise. I only say this because I think pyjamas is a great project and I'm looking forward to see more people using it for dual (desktop/web) apps. Che |
