We’re now cappuccino/cappuccino on GitHub

The main Cappuccino repository has been renamed. What used to be: `280north/cappuccino`
is now `cappuccino/cappuccino`. `280north/cappuccino` is a fork of the new main repository, which means old links will continue to work.

For most people this will not make much of a difference but if you are building from source, you might want to pull from the new repository instead. The Git URL is then:

git://github.com/cappuccino/cappuccino.git

If you are running a UNIX like system, you can update your Git clone using a command like this one:

find . -path "*.git/config" -type f -exec sed -i '' 's/github.com\/280north/github.com\/cappuccino/g' '{}' \;

If you find an old issue link, from a mailing list for instance, you will have to modify it by hand to find its new home. For example:

https://github.com/280north/cappuccino/issues/10

becomes:

https://github.com/cappuccino/cappuccino/issues/10

Feel free to help out and update links in the wiki.

WWDC: CPCoder Night, hosted by Sofa and 280 North

If you’re in town for WWDC, or happen to be in San Francisco already, stop by CPCoder Night on Monday for a chance to meet 280 North, Sofa, and dozens of other Cappuccino developers. It’s taking place from 7-9PM in the Martini Lounge at Jillian’s, in the Metreon across the street from Moscone West.

Thanks to sponsorship by Sofa there will be food!

If you can’t make it before 9:00 we’ll likely be hanging around the bar at Jillian’s after, but check @280north on Twitter for updates.

Announcing Atlas

tlrobinson — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 03:55:48 +0000

Over at 280 North, we announced our next product, called Atlas, at the Future of Web Apps conference in Miami this week.

Atlas is a visual development tool for creating web applications using the Cappuccino framework. The best way to explain Atlas is to show it:

Think Vitamin has an article discussing Atlas in more detail.

We’re really excited about the ways Atlas could change the process of developing web applications. Atlas will allow developers to worry less about boilerplate user interface and glue code, just as the Cappuccino framework gives developers many common features expected by users, letting them focus on the ones specific to their applications.

Furthermore, Atlas allows non-programmers, such as many graphic designers, to join in on the process of actually building an application, rather than just providing mockups that must then be replicated in code by a developer.

Atlas will be available this summer. Sign up for updates on 280atlas.com and we’ll let you know of the progress on Atlas.
