   That is if you plan to run almost the same code on all platforms Two counter examples here: - For devices without a JS interpreter, app is executed server-side - Progressive enhancement / Graceful degration : some platforms can have more fe

   Titanium from Appcelerator does allow controlling native components from javascript, however the base UI definition is not HTML AFAIK.

   we do parts of what you describe: an app is indeed specified in a quite abstract way ( http://framework.joshfire.com/doc/0.9/gettingstarted/overvie... ), however we don't go as far as implementing automatic transforms from multiple panels t

   yes it's writing an app in JS in a way that's portable and that can use device-specific implementations of both UI Components (video for instance) and input methods (touch/mouse/keyboards/http/...)

   very simple, because as a company we'd like for manufacturers (think Samsung or LG) to come to us for licensing if they want to release a device using the framework. That business plan allows us to avoid dicking around with developers like

    Wrong direction? Depends on where you're headed to :) The #1 goal for this framework is being cross-device. Having the same language run wherever we need (client side, server side with nodejs) is a big step in that direction. Now, this is c

    can you be more specific? currently the adapters mostly implement the input methods of each device (touch, tv remove, mouse, ...) and most of the styling is left the the developer with CSS/Templates.

    Developers can use phonegap to provide these abstractions where they make sense (mobile). Another focus of the framework is TVs and connected objects, where we do provide abstraction for media elements like video : each TV SDK (Samsung, Phi

    Thanks! Here's the github link while we activate the cache on the server: https://github.com/joshfire/joshfire-framework This was released 2 days ago so yes it's still very rough around the edges! It's currently GPL but there's also a fre

    Hi, yes it's a Developer Preview, we didn't expect the HN #1 slot so fast ;-) Back button support is implemented (works on the website which is itself written with the framework) but we didn't polish all the examples enough just yet... will

    you don't "need" it but it will save you time by already packing all glue and standard code for the supported platforms (SDKs, specific video components on TVs, scrolling on mobiles, code for handling keyboard/remote keystrokes, ...)

    Facebook has tons of bright developers that other bright developers like to be around, and even if they're not all primarily motivated by the potential value of their options, it does create a self-sustaining black hole...
