Drupal and eZpublish did adopt Symfony, and TYPO3 built their own modern framework (Flow3). Out of these, Drupal and TYPO3 Neos also went with my Create.js library for inline editing. So yeah, there is some precedent at popular CMSs using a

So, essentially the iOS / Android ecosystem is the same as the website ecosystem in early 2000s, and FaceBook app ecosystem in late 2000s. Digital agencies building apps for big companies' marketing purposes. I wonder how sustainable that i

I don't think the prize for the 3rd place has been given out yet. Possible contenders are BlackBerry, Bada, and WP. Symbian still sells ok-ish, but is clearly a dead end. And then there are some new players including Tizen, Sailfish, and Fi

Why even require the download and command-line steps? You could probably wrap this all in a nice web interface

Some of our guys have been looking at that, but I don't know if they've released any code for it yet. However, Create works quite well with various different back-ends (PHP, Java, Node.js, ...) as the only things you need to support are RDF
