Other than dynamically-related colors, is this much different from designing in Illustrator and exporting to PDF, which I understand is well-supported in iOS and OS X?
- joelhaasnoot 15y agoCode generation seems to be the selling point. I've never seen wel executed GUI code generation however on any platform. Windows Forms was especially awful...
- vdm 15y agoThink 'Save As NSView Code' for Illustrator.
- Tloewald 15y agoYour PDF is going to be resolution independent and end up being used in much the same way as the code, so I'm to sure it's a significant difference. I do like the automated color derivation though.
- rbarooah 15y agoAdd a parameter or two to the generated code, then you'll see the difference,
- Tloewald 15y agoGood point, although if you knew what you were doing with PDF ( which is, after all, itself written in a programming language... )
- rbarooah 15y agoTrue, but that is clearly impractical within a cocoa program since the PDF handling methods don't provide a mechanism for passing in parameters.
- 286c8cb04bda 15y agoIt looks like to biggest extra is the ability to insert variables into the generated, so you can make e.g. a blue and orange button from the the same output.
