So, for those of you who are staying with RB (that is to say, not
climbing
the steep learning curve towards Xcode) why is that?
Ease of use?
Cross platform ability?
The Xcode package is tight, to be sure, and from most comments it
seems that
RB has some known bugs and performance issues. Something must be
keeping
people here! :-)
Just curious.
RB is cross platform (XCode - specifically Objective-C isn't - I do use
XCode to write Java code as well).
UI's produced by RB are much nicer cross platform than QT or Java's.
RB's learning curve is/was/has been lower than Cocoa's.
RB is getting better all the time and the range of things that can be
done is growing all the time. You might not be able to write Photoshop
plugins today, but that's not to say you will never be able to do so.
The community is very helpful.
RB is great for prototyping a UI.
Lots of things to like.
It's not perfect, but it is improving all the time.
