The first alpha/beta of the RainWidget engine has just been released. My feedback has had quite an effect on him, this has also had the effect of reducing his group's membership from 12 members to a mere 11. 6th January 2018 - jump straight to the end.įirst of all - before reading this review please note that the developer of RainWidgets has just banned me from his group on Deviantart. 25th April 2018 - Developer untruths discovered! In this rant I am just proposing an alternative path for the Xwidget engine that probably would have led to success and the widespread adoption of a tool that the world does actually need but still doesn't quite have.įirst Encounters of an Xwidget kind - RainWidgetsUpdate 4. However, the very poor editing environment, the lack of any documentation whatsoever and the buggy implementation of APIs, coupled with a complete lack of support/updates for many years led to its failure to be adopted as the desktop javascript rendering engine of choice. It almost achieved this by building a very decent graphical GUI where a developer could compose and animate widgets and combining this with the embedding of a javascript rendering engine into one Windows desktop tool.
Xwidget had the potential to be a rather nice widget IDE and widgeting environment allowing easy widget development and putting javascript programs on the desktop. What Xwidget could have been.What Xwidget could have been and how it should have succeeded? Just a short rant this time.
