A truly ground-breaking bit of web kit makes it to aged 1! Congratulations should be afforded to all the clever people who put this together. I'm sure before it's 2nd birthday, this neat little frameworks' adoption will be hugely widespread.

Is there anyone working on integrating it with PHP?

Cappuccino looks very promising! I've been involved with OpenLaszlo for several years, which has some similar concepts (hide the complexity of CSS/JS/DOM from developers using a language and a compiler, building apps as opposed to paged with interactive elements, etc.).

HTML5/CSS3 support are a big plus, and powerful features like drag & drop support with the desktop give browser based apps an effective way to interconnect data sources in a way we only know from desktop apps. I'll look into Cappuccino in the next weeks, and will do some blog posts on my experience. Great stuff!

First, I would like to thank you for this amazing framework!

I've got a couple questions.

SproutCore has a really interesting framework called DataStore. It allows to manage structured data and it is often used to implement the model layer, read/write data from/to the server, manage relationship between obects and other cool stuff (like managing for you cache). It is designed with cloud computing in mind.
Do you plan to add a similar framework in Cappuccino?

Do you plan to write a tutorial covering client-server communication?

More generaly, do you plan to make client-server communication easier with Cappuccino?

Congrats Cappuccino team! I see the huge promise of Obj-J and Cappuccino (and Atlas!). Unfortunately I´ve tried to wrap my mind around cocoa and objective-c in my spare time for about a year without making anything useful. Even Hillegass can´t help my slowing brain. It´s obviously been a long time since C++ in school and Amos on the Amiga. Still keep hoping for that book of yours and searching for that elementary tutorial.

I'm not sure if it's a known bug or not but in IE 6,7, and 8 the images in the demos all have a rough black border around them. Works great in Firefox 3.5.3 though!

Under:
WinXP SP3
IE8.06
IE 6,7,8 (IE Tester)

Great work! I've been watching cappuccino since day 1, and I like it!
If I may, just one or two suggestions here:
1) Delegation! It's also great for humans, not just code!! I think there is a lot of talented programmers that could help get the fork queue to nil.
2) A public development timeline. People need to be convinced to choose this framework, not just by its beauty, because one will know what's ahead. I think this is far more important for the acceptance of your wonderful work (no sarcasm I swear) than any other feature you may think of.

just my 2 cents...
Happy birthday Cappuccino!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this wonderful web framework. I always forget that I'm actually programming something that will run in the browser. Web development has never been this much fun. Thank you!

Hey, congrats to the core team and all the contributers, keep up the good work!

Some new information about the status of Atlas would be nice, too…

v1.0 is somewhere out there
