The latest technology I've been learning is Palm's SDK for webOS,
|
||||
Mojo. My first impression is that it's a great platform and
|
||||
Palm could do a great job of 2.0 if they cut down on some of the
|
||||
verbosity of gluing together the UI. I have learned to like
|
||||
JavaScript over the years as I learned that despite its
|
||||
warts [there are good parts](http://ca.video.yahoo.com/watch/630959/2974197)
|
||||
too. If you squint just right you can see that it's scheme with
|
||||
Algol syntax. HTML and CSS are what they are, but with WebKit running
|
||||
the show and only a single engine to target it's not that bad. I've
|
||||
gone from Eclipse to Emacs for the coding itself and highly recommend
|
||||
Emacs for Mojo development. There is nothing that I miss from the
|
||||
Eclipse or Komodo Edit thanks to the fact that Mojo uses open
|
||||
languages and standards.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As far as actual development goes the Mojo documentation steers you
|
||||
towards a combination of Eclipse, Palm's Mojo plugin for Eclipse,
|
||||
and the Aptana Studio plugin. My editor of choice is Emacs but
|
||||
I decided to give it a spin just to get started quickly, how bad
|
||||
could it be? I'm not going to get into details but I will say that I
|
||||
don't think I'll ever use Eclipse for anything; it's far too
|
||||
sluggish and provides no compelling features for the languages
|
||||
that I use. I tried Komodo Edit and it was significantly
|
||||
better but still not for me. Emacs is great for editing HTML,
|
||||
JavaScript, and CSS so all I really missed from the IDEs were the
|
||||
shortcuts to package, install, and launch apps in the
|
||||
emulator. I headed over to
|
||||
the [Emacs Wiki](http://www.emacswiki.org/) and
|
||||
downloaded Jonathan
|
||||
Arkell's [Mojo
|
||||
support for Emacs](http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MojoSdk)
|
||||
which provided a great base to get
|
||||
started with. There are wrappers around (all?) of the Palm SDK
|
||||
commands but it needed a bit of work to make it just do what I
|
||||
wanted with as little input and thought as possible.
