> while approaching the qooxdoo 1.0 release due next week, we'd like to > gather some feedback from you about the strong points of qooxdoo. > 1) Easy to understand for a newbie, yet a power user can extend the framework. Easy for newbies and experienced developers alike. 2) Exhaustive set of widgets, controls, models etc. There weren't a lot of things missing for me. 3) Great help through the mailing list. Every one of my doubts not solved via the docs or by reading the code, or my sheer ineptness were cleared by some one on the list in a timely manner. I've seen inhospitable answers towards newbies and developers in other mailing lists. On qooxdoo, there are no flame wars, no sarcasm towards newbies etc, makes it a great place :) 4) Great site with lots of documentation and example code.
My petty gripes are: 1) Trunk breaks small features some times. Like bug 3196 for eg. A regression test/continuous integration test before including features/change sets would be better and we can catch these bugs and catch early too. Don't know if these UI things can be tested, that too across all the supported browsers automatically. 2) A more easily extensible theme system. Of course I've tried most other javascript frameworks, and qooxdoo is the BEST here IMO. But doesn't mean we can't improve further. Adobe flex builder was the easiest to style/theme among the RIA frameworks I've used. So we can definitely improve in this regard. Overall, it's one of the best pieces of s/w for building web apps :) cheers, skar. -- -- The life so short, the craft so long to learn. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ qooxdoo-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qooxdoo-devel
