    I thought I would share some videos of the current development version of the Ext 3 Designer. It's coming along nicely.

    Yes, it was actually built using Ext.

    very very nice. Can't wait to get my hands on this.

    It's all extjs and Air right? So basically it will generate json? what's json code quality? any example of that? I mean how easy would it be to understand, edit and modify once generated code?

    Very impressive.

    You seem to have a good javascript "bean" API going there which allows editing of properties. Very impressive to hoik the beginners in.

    It's going to create a high support demand as people throw something together with that which is totally Ext standard, and then wail "How do I center the buttons in my login dialog?"* and they have no idea what anything is, what the DOM is what CSS is, what Javascript is, what an object is...

    And if they have any wherewithall, they'll soon find it faster to program Ext directly themselves.


    * An actual question from a couple of days ago. You have to be able to manipulate the resulting DOM structure after render.

    very nice indeed!
    Animal is right, it's probably going to quadruple the n00b posts, but this is also a nice starting point for the veterans who can slap something together quickly and then just hand-code the little details. can't wait to play with this!
    great job Jack!

    Veterans can slap something together in code much more quickly than twiddling about clicking in PropertyGrid cells, and dragging things around! It really is an absolute beginner tool.
