Welcome to the weekly blog post.

Generator: New ‘source-server-reload’ Job

Have you already seen the recent blog post about a new reload feature of the generator? It is meant to give you a more rapid development turnaround when creating an app. It is experimental, and allows for all kinds of future extensions beyond its current basic feature set, so your feedback and ideas are appreciated.

Real-life Example: qjide – IDE for J programming language

A few days ago Martin Sauer let us know about a newly released project:

qjide is a browser-based IDE for the J programming language. J is particularly strong in the mathematical, statistical, and logical analysis of data. The IDE is built with qooxdoo as the web application framework, and Python (2.6/2.7).

qooxdoo’s rich set of widgets to create the look-and-feel of a desktop application used together with Python’s ready-to-use web application server, and the ability to include foreign functions from a .dll, .so, .dylib, qooxdoo and Python are the perfect “duo infernale” to create a nice looking and practical browser-based IDE.

qjide is available as an open-source project, currently rather an experiment, not a replacement for the existing JHS/IDE. Features include a directory/file browser, a multi-tab script editor with syntax coloring, an interactive J console), an definitions viewer, keyboard shortcuts, plotting features and a package manager.”

Thanks Martin for sharing and good luck with your IDE!
