Hello John, As Christian said QxTransformer was created in order to quickly build static parts of GUI. It doesn't replace existing qooxdoo way, it just helps. Static GUI part (e.g. layout, forms, windows etc.) that is part of application I don't want to focus a lot attention on. I just want to write logic part and quickly build GUI for it. That's the main reason why we've created QxTransformer.
About integration... Well, I hope it's a question of time. GUI builder for qooxdoo is still my dream. :) (Why dream? Because I don't have time to work on.) But it's complicated as well because of javascript. Welcome to qooxdoo world. Hope you like. If you have any questions about QxTransformer ask here or in our Google Group (http://groups.google.com/group/qxtransformer?hl=en).
