Is Sencha coding it's own language?

[omarm]

I'm not sure if this is a super dumb question, I thought I'd ask anyway...

Is Sencha it's own language - the way keywords and conventions you need to use?
I've spent loooads of time now getting my head around Sencha Touch
It seems like any other language - but definitely seems to be custom to Sencha

Thanks!

Aside from XTemplates, it's all javascript.

But I know what you mean, xtype configuration looks like a special language. Remember that xtype configuration objects are still just javascript short-hand object notation, and they are basically parameters to a constructor function of a component or class.

ah... i thought the clever people at sencha had invented their own language!
just googled, they have a guide here: http://www.sencha.com/learn/xtemplates-part-i/

this actually helps me a lot to understand better

thanks
