That's pretty amazing. It's like Interface Builder but for Cappuccino ... and as a web app.

I can't believe how awesome these guys are, I hope Apple acquires them and starts using their technology for MobileMe + iWork.

If you knew anything about what happened to WebObjects, you would be hoping that such a scenario never occurred.

Übercool. Can't wait to no longer have to build views in code.

Seems like there is a good text editor being used in Atlas, hopefully this will make its way into Cappuccino soon!!

I love what these guys are doing - I'm just not sold on the whole Objective-J thing.

Fantastic. RAD tools for the web haven't ever been done properly.

This could be huge.

The funny thing is, it actually looks quicker and easier than IB - probably because Objective-J is interpreted and runs in the browser, and it has the controllers in Atlas.

It's fascinating to watch the re-invention of the browser as a NeWS server (client in normal terminology) from nearly 20 years ago.

Postscript imaging model == HTML5 Canvas, Postscript == Javascript.

Hmm...
