Comments on: Why isn’t there a Web 2.0 Ajax Visual Studio? http://blog.stevienova.com/2008/09/12/why-isnt-there-a-web-20-ajax-visual-studio/ Homepage of Steve Novoselac Tue, 16 Mar 2010 18:51:06 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: jmchauvet http://blog.stevienova.com/2008/09/12/why-isnt-there-a-web-20-ajax-visual-studio/comment-page-1/#comment-120185 jmchauvet Fri, 19 Sep 2008 23:18:25 +0000 http://blog.stevienova.com/?p=952#comment-120185 On this line of thought there is DreamFace Interactive which enables design (and optional programming in Javascript or Flex for the stronghearted) of personal, interactive mashups directly within the browser. It differs from the traditional software developer IDE in that it is Web-based from the ground up, predicated on the broader availability of data source (both internal to the intranet and external on the Web). DreamFace-based Web applications are orchestrations of interacting widgets accessing and operating on these data sources. As such they require no programmin skill and are assembled, run, and shared from within a browser. Of course, programmers may add to the data widgets some of their own--in Javascript or using Adobe's Flex environement/IDE. Once published on the (remote) DreamFace framework the datawidgets become available to others, programmers and non-programmers alike. In addition DreamFace is Open Source and the community is building fast.

Though the GUI parts would probably be very easy to implement using Ra-Ajax :) At least in the upcoming release which have got drag'n'drop support plus a lot of other candy stuff which makes the WYSIWYG part of the .ASPX form quite easy for doing within the browser :) Interesting idea, I’ve had it a couple of times before but thrown it away due to not having time.

Won't have to worry about using a Windows VM for .NET coding on OS X. Heroku.com is available for creating Ruby on Rails apps entirely through your browser. Hopefully other platforms follow suit.
