Anyone use Pyjamas (pyjs) python to javascript compiler (like GWT..)

Question

Has any one used this? I don't have a large background in Javascript and this lib looks like it may speed things along.

Answer 1

yep. me. i'm the lead developer. drop by on groups.google.com "pyjamas-dev" and say hello.

Answer 2

Yes, I've used. It's amazing! I think it's much easier to use than the Java-based GWT. I found the Google Code wiki on it very practical: http://code.google.com/p/pyjamas/w/list

If you're just starting out with it, then definitely check out the showcase: http://pyjs.org/showcase/Showcase.html for usable snippets/widgets

As of now, it is not supported on M$ Windows, but runs beautifully on Linux.

Answer 3

yes it works fine on windows (it's a compiler: you just need python, to run the conversion to javascript). but if you're thinking of pyjamas-desktop, 0.6 added support for MSHTML as one of the engines, so that works too.
