- pyre 14y agoMaybe I should have specified WebView rather than web view. IIRC, a WebView is a ready-to-go embed-able WebKit widget in the toolkit of OSX GUI developers. Colloquy represents the chatroom text as a stream of XML, which it uses XSLT themes to translate into HTML, which is displayed in a WebView. I'm sure Adium does something similar. "Using HTML/CSS/JS as the new GUI medium" doesn't limit itself to just running stuff in a traditional browser. I was under the assumption that we were talking about making HTML/CSS/JS the new GUI layer, even for native apps.
