SproutCore10-Introduction

Page history last edited by Charles Jolley 4 mos ago

Overview 

 

This page descibes the 1.0 release of SproutCore specifically.  To learn more about the overall purpose of SproutCore, visit the About the SproutCore Project page.

 

The purpose of the SproutCore 1.0 project is to create the first official stable and generally usable release of the SproutCore platform.  This means an average-level developer with no prior experience with SproutCore should be able to easily create and deploy a basic Cloud Application that runs on all modern browser platforms.  Additionally, changes after the 1.0 release will be carefully controlled so that core written for the 1.0 API will continue to function with few changes on future releases.

 

This is a complex project with several sub-components to it that must be completed.  This page tracks the overall progress for SproutCore 1.0 along with its sub-component.

 

Current Status

 

The core code for SproutCore 1.0 (i.e. Bitburger and Abbot) is in beta state.  Mostly bug fixes remain.  All of the goals for this part of the project were met or exceeded.   

 

The overall SproutCore 1.0 project is not in beta state yet because documentation, sample code, and website revisions are still to be completed.  See the related projects below for specific status on each component.
