Hi everybody, For the last couple of months i've been building a Firebug plugin called Firecrow, which can be used to extract client side UI controls. Basically the end idea is that you select a node in Firebug's HTML panel and replicate the behavior that you wish to extract. Based on the data gathered during that interaction the tool will extract ONLY html code, css styles, js code, resources (images, fonts..) that are needed for that UI control and store it on the disk. Optionally you can choose to embed the extracted UI control directly into an existing page.
The tool is far from finished - it's in early alfa stage, so currently it isn't able to extract every UI control that you encounter (actually it will screw something up on a large number of them :) ). I've made three videos demonstrating some of the tool's capabilities: http://www.fesb.hr/~jomaras/index.php?id=apps Once it's finished the tool will be open source (there is a version on the source forge, but it's messy and i've only tested on my comp and a couple of others, so i offer no guaranties..) Basically, i've posted here so that i can get your feedback. What do you think of the idea? Any comments will be greatly appriciated!
