Exciting times are ahead for Cappuccino, so I’m sure you already know about NativeHost. Wait, you don’t? Oh good, I have a story then. If you’ve never heard of Cappuccino, it’s an open-source application framework that utilizes web technologies, and is flavored with things like Apple’s Cocoa framework for example. But instead of specifically targeting the web, the folks working on Atlas (which itself is a Cappuccino application) found a way to distribute to the desktop environment with minimal work. NativeHost allows Cappuccino applications to, ya know, run natively as a desktop application. Cooked right in to both the Cappuccino build tools and the Atlas IDE, you’re welcomed to give it a try and read through all the “whys” and “hows” over at Cappaccino’s blog.
