- CharlesW 6y agoYou absolutely could (I did a couple enterprise-y projects with HyperCard during that era), but it required dedication and discipline.
- simonh 6y agoFair enough, but I don't think that would be convincing to Jobs. It being hard to make apps idiomatic isn't ideal for an Apple development product. I suspect his view would be that this is a space better filled by an independent company that cares about such a product.
