Well that thing never compiled for me, using trunk libobjc2 and trunk llvm/clang on my server, let alone I have portability in mind (Written under OS X, it is required to build on Linux as well, using trunk libobjc2, trunk llvm/clang and full Objective-C ARC.). And the reason I spawned this project is not only make a server, but also make using it easier. WebUIKit mimics iOS UIKit in behavior, very closely. (hence the namesake) To the extent that I will even create a way to write pages with embedded WebUIKit objects just like xibs.
