I don't really see how this is much different than the promise of ASP.Net (outside of the Mac vs PC argument) - Allowing programmers to create web pages the same way they create applications.
It's a tremendous pain in the ass and a failure for Microsoft as far as I see it.
- boucher 18y agoWell, at the very least, ASP.NET is a server side solution, while Cappuccino is entirely client side -- it has no server side component.
- tptacek 18y agoHow is being the #1 or #2 enterprise application framework a failure for Microsoft?
- icey 18y agoBecause they're now starting to back the MVC framework more and more heavily, which is a return to developing web applications like web applications and not like client-server applications. Just because they have a large amount of adoption doesn't mean they've done things the right way. I'm not saying that ASP.Net doesn't have a huge level of adoption, because it does. I am saying that they are seeing the problems with the idea of web applications just like client-server apps. To be 100% clear, I mean that the concept of developing a web application just like it's a client-server application is a failure. Not the Asp.Net stack which is very clearly not.
