The official documentation seems to be light on explanations of 'how to understand the sproutcore way' eg, why things are done the way they are, how to intuit what to do from where you're at... ...
I'm about to build a web app and I would like to use either SproutCore or Cappuccino. Only thing is, I can't figure out which one to use... I've been reading about them, and they seem to share the same goals (MVC on the client, with a thin REST server). I understand that they differ in their implementation (Obj-C vs JS), but I'm having ...
I have a sproutcore 1.0 page with SC.ListView items and a SC.TextFieldView bound to the same property of a model. When I type at the end of the TextFieldView everything works as expected. If I position the cursor in the middle and start typing the cursor jumps to the end. What could be causing this? I suspect that the jumping is happen...
Here's an interesting question for J-Objective coders out there. How many work hours would it take for you to code the clone of 280Slides.com with Sproutcore. Also estimates with Cappuccino are ok because they are pretty same kind of frameworks, at least to my eye. Not that I'm planning to do it but 280Slides has all the basic functions...
Didn't find any from their website. I mostly just trying to see which one is worth going with(RIA of course). thanks ...
Has anyone used Sproutcore for a web application? If so, can you give me a description of your experience? I am currently considering it, but I have a few concerns. First, the documentation is bad/incomplete, and I'm afraid that I'll spend lots of time figuring things out or digging through source code. Also, I'm a bit hesitant to use a ...
Hey... I started using Javascript MVC SproutCore Framework (sproutcore.com) and I found it impressive. But... Where can I find good tutorials for it? Where can I find widgets for it? How can I use (best practice, loading librarys, implementation) other frameworks like Spry framework (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/). Thx! ...
I'm testing the sproutcore todo's tutorial and I have checked the code in step-5 and it's identical to my code at least as far as I can see, but the addButton is not responding to click events. addTask: function () { var task; task = Sinatra.store.createRecord(Sinatra.Task, { 'description': 'New Task', 'isDone...

Hi, I'm creating an application in SproutCore, which I want to integrate with Facebook.

Hello everyone, I am building a web-based application. The frontend has been designed in Sproutcore. For the backend, we have our own python API which handles all transactions with multiple databases. What is the best way to hook up the front-end with the back-end. AFAIK django is pretty monolithic (correct me if i am wrong) and it w...
I am trying to intall SproutCore, but it doesn't work. I followed the instructions in How to Install SproutCore in Virtual Enviroment but after the installation I cant start sc in the commandline. So, I hope you understand, because my English is very bad... greetings, Leif ...
Lets say I have a few utility functions in file tests/utils/functions.js. I would like to use these functions from several unit test files. However, I'm not able to use them as the Sproutcore build system does not include any external files into the html page used to run the unit tests. Only application code and the code from the unit t...
I just can't seem to find a good tutorial on this. It's simple: I want to link a stylesheet / js file to the HEAD section of my application. I found where the index.html file is (in tmp/build/static/my_project/en/current) and I can make changes to it, but I think this is the wrong way. ...

All the other code is working but I can't find how to either access the css properties directly or attach a new classname to the div. borderDiv: SC.View.design({ layout:{top:60, left:60, width: 400, height: 525}, classNames:"panel", ...
I have this idea about a twitter mashup and I've been doing some research over the last couple of days regarding which framework to build it with. SproutCore looks really nice (especially as it has a UI designer too), then someone suggested Capuccino (I am not to keen to go with Objective-J, don't know why though). What do you think, sta...
I recently found out about the sproutcore and capuccino frameworks for web app development as proper MVC approach to creating Desktop-like applications. As far as I could understand, the main difference between the two frameworks is that Cappucino abstracts away the HTML+CSS+Javascript to Objective-J - a new programming language develo...
