Hi Joaquin,

What exactly are you thinking about ?
Widget-only tools like http://metawidget.org/ or a full stack a la rails ?

Cheers

Wow, this metawidget stuff looks really nice. Remi, do you have any 
experience using it together with Stripes?

Yeah they've been busy apparently ! Last time I checked it wasn't that
advanced.

Nope I haven't really used that myself, I only took it for a spin quite a
while ago, just to have a look...
They don't seem to integrate with the Stripes taglib. One could write the
necessary adaptors : metawidget is all about this, it basically grabs the
more metadata it can from your environment (domain models etc) and spits
out GUIs magically for the target platform.

I remember concluding it was a very interesting project but too complex for
what I need everyday. I mean, generating GUIs is a graal many have tried to
find, but in my own experience it's impossible to abstract a User Interface
completely : you will definitly need to put your hands in the dirt
eventually. There's no practical meta model for describing User Interfaces
as far as I know.
And anyways I'm always (even morethat usually) skeptical when something has
the word "meta" in it :)

Still, these tools can help a lot in terative development, they allow to
build faster on top of something solid. The only drawnback is when the
framework gets into your way and makes it harder to do what you want.

Metawidget is probably heavy stuff if you only target Stripes. It would
shine in a multi-platform environment where you need GUIs that run in
Swing, in a webapp etc. But this type of approach, as far as I know, has
always failed as well...

"Write once run anywhere" ain't happening yet in the GUI world...

Cheers

Remi

I disagree.

We have been using Media Queries, part of the so called "Responsive
Design", and have been quite successful with it.
There is no GUI generated magically, just plain normal CSS at work.

http://mediaqueri.es/ has some great examples of sites using it.

Hi Remi!

I was thinking more along the lines of a full stack thing that worked with 
Stripes.

I was thinking of write once (or more exactly *specify* once) and run
anywhere : Java, iPhone, Android, Web, Fash, you-name-it. There ain't even
no such thing as CSS in Swing :P
