We're making progress. Not ready to make any new announcements just yet.

Any news on the progress of Atlas?

Pablo,

If you want to help, the best way is to contribute bug fixes to
Cappuccino. The github issue tracker is the best place to start.

We're not going to give a specific release date until we're confident
we will meet it. We'd rather ship good software a little late than
buggy software on an artificial deadline.

Hi members of Cappuccino,

I get astonish when a see the demo few month ago. I would like to test it when you release it. The summer time is now, and I would like to know how this time frame goes and when you think you will release it. If you need some help to finish it tell me and I see if I can help you.

Thanks

That's REALLY FANTASTIC tool, as it will revolutionize the world of web application programming. It will reduce the development time to a great extent for developing the user interface.

Open source? Probably not. Hey, 280's got to have some kind of business model. I like the thought that they give away 280Slides and develop Cappuccino *and* Atlas. And charging for the IDE is a perfect solution to keeping them afloat. I just hope that the price for Atlas is in the ball park of what the semi-casual programmer can afford. (i.e. less than $100 and hopefully under $50).

I like it. I want it! I'd really, really, really like it now...or ASAP.

Actually, I'd also be happy if I had a decent set of example code snippets that showed how to get the sizing, aligning, and linking attributes done. The online documentation for Cap. only gives the description of the classes. Code snippets would go a long way to help non-objective-anything programmers to get started.

...or give us an alpha/beta version so I can see what the code is supposed to look like for the interface options I want.

I wonder if it will be opensource and/or free as in free beer.... making it free as in beer and not opensource will be hard, because webapplications like this are transmited as source to the client... or are you plaining on using some kind of advanced obfuscator?

I really hope you make this opensource.... I'd love to see it integrating with server side javascript (jaxer) to give the developer a really comfortable 100% javascript/objective-j development experience

Wow, you guys seem to do your homework quite well :)

If it is as stunning as it looks at the video, you will leave SproutCore miles behind you.

Can't wait to get in touch with it.

May it be early summer instead of late summer so I can spend my summer playing with it (-:

Best of luck guys... what your'e doing looks amazing - I certainly look forward to Atlas' release and a little relief from the database learning curve. Funnily I found this link through a discussion on accessibility - though feel sure many will jump to your side as you leapfrog through your development. Great looking product!!

This looks REALLY great!

Why we need to wait until summer when we need it now?

Once again, you guys managed to surprise me! You are setting the foundations for a revolution in the field of web apps. You are my heros! I love Atlas.
I would like to see an other important feature though: debugging! That is to say being able to set break points, inspect the value of variables by mousing over etc. (just like in XCode). Does Atlas provide code suggestions as well?

That demo looked absolutely stunning.

How fast was the computer you were running it on?

I've been following your work for some time after first hearing you on one of Leo Laporte's podcasts awhile back. 280 slides is a work of art and I've been chomping at the bit for you to put together an IDE that gives us mortals an easy way to build powerful apps. I am really looking forward to playing with this later on this summer..

Will there be a mechanism to connect with MySQL databases?
