Pardon my Google-translated French
May. 25th, 2007 10:31 pmSexier version of that HTML UI demo. This Testbench port now has full support for Volity's JavaScript API, as well as its translation token protocol. Also, it no longer has Tic Tac Toe hardcoded into it, but you wouldn't know it to look at this. It's running TTT as a module.
I'm calling it feature-complete. Will document n upload n announce tomorrow.
Some notes carried over from the last post's comments (which, I have to say, charged me up quite a bit):
Both the Testbench application and the Tic Tac Toe UI are pure HTML/CSS, scripted with plain ol' JavaScript. You can look at their source if you dig around with your browser, but it will be all up in Subversion soon.
UIs don't have to be pure HTML, though. Our intent is that they can also be Flash, Java, even SVG applets, so long as the developer uses a JavaScript bridge that can pass messages between the embedded component and its container.
Yes, I want a demo of a Flash-based Volity Tic Tac Toe UI. I'd have already made it myself, if I knew any Flash. Maybe I can find someone else to help with this.
We have no plans to drop SVG or Gamut support. However, if my current feelings that the web-based client will be far more popular than Gamut bear out, we're likely to focus a smaller portion of our development energy on SVG stuff.
