Quilt user interface layout spec examples ?

In other words, is the desktop dead?

I certainly haven't lost sight of the desktop. I think the way forward 
is to improve the viewtop and then get it into the web plugin.

Reichart looks so flat from the side...

that's alright, we can just "enhance the image" a few times.

viewtop is still a great concept..dont kill it..

Reichart..... do you want me to explain Anton how Quilt works?

I just want to see some code snippets.

yea me too please

what are we talking about? Surely Quilt does not replace View, no?

ok... so basically.... you have cards which are like windows, and 
molecules which are like widgets

cards are generated by a "generator" which is a function that outputs 
html and a few small other things

Vive le Manifestaions

it can call other functions that return the html for the molecules

this goes to the client side... which also loads your JS file with 
the classes for your card and molecules

and then drives the ui on the client side

In my opinion, Rebol should FOCUS on the backend.. aka Cheynne.. 
data storage etc.

then the ui just calls back the server via qtask api (blowdart)

ok, yes, I've heard this explanation before. What are the widgets 
called etc. ?

generate-content: func [
        is-card content-generator cardid
        dimensions js-files dialog-arr args
        /local
        l_width l_height l_id l_src js-classname
    ] [
        l_src: none
        if not is-card [l_id: cardid]
        switch content-generator [
            "file.fileshare" [
                obj: make quilt/ret-obj [
                    src: build-fileshare
                    title: "Your files"
                    short-title: "Files"
                ]

                quilt/add-dialog dialog-arr "fileupload" "FileShareUpload" rejoi
n [
                    "<p>Please select a file to upload:</p>"
                    quilt/basic-molecule/class/id {

            <iframe src="about:blank" style="border: none; height: 60px; width: 
250px;">IFRAME not displayed!</iframe>

            <p style="display: none;">Uploading file... <img src="/images/Qtask-
Bar-64.gif" /></p>

So what is Quilt in general? Sorry, was not here for the most of 
the presentation. Is that just Qtask infrastructure "front-end" for 
browser client?

i'll save you most of the rest of the html there...

either is-card [
                    insert tail js-files "card/FileShare.js"

                    set [l_id l_src] framework/basic-card/floating/originX/origi
nY/width/height/title/short-title/class

                    obj/src cardid content-generator dimensions/1 dimensions/2

                    any [dimensions/3 "640px"] any [dimensions/4 "500px"]
                    obj/title obj/short-title "FileShare"
                ] [

                    l_src: quilt/contextualize obj/src "FileShare" cardid
                ]
            ]
        ]
        reduce [l_id js-classname l_src]
    ]

where can we re-read Quilt information on the web?

(not afaik, but Reichart will answer you)

Q. Given the mashup philosophy, what, if any community support is 
there for javascript dialect, CSS dialect etc?

thx Gabriele

Q: wondering where is the money in the Quilt concept? Is it in your 
own applications or in the framework rights? (i missed the start 
of you speach..sorry)

afaik quilt is just the ui "framework" for qtask.

Great question !

;-)

I meant within the Rebol community.. can we work together to build 
browser based dialects, support?

World of Warcraft has its own currency. Are you planning your own 
trading system within Qtask ?

intresting reichart..thanks..

.. and Second Life.

(btw guys, please keep in mind our time is limited ;)

but it reminded me of your doc, where you suggested to separate app 
logic and UI representation. I can imagine having rebol framework 
back-end, featuring various engines - callendaring, task management, 
general workflow engine etc., and API for user interface. And the 
client? - would be translated into web browser interface or represented 
by Rebol View UI. Possible? :-)

your doc equals Gabriele's proposition on next gen Rebol's UI concept 
...

petr, possible, but quilt does not do that, there is no dialect.

I think it will be better to continue here on altme ....

shut up!

;-)

haha

What I miss so far is - more strategic view. We know little of R3, 
well, we know some bits, but still no bigger picture - integration 
strategies, what happens to View, what is the idea behind View, IOS, 
altME integration?

cindy asks if you can talk any faster?

Reichart, please think of concluding now. We are out of schedule 
by far !! (DideC speaking)

like 2 hours off...

very nice reichart..thanks ! hope to read more about Quilt/qtask 
details soon...

Thankyou Reichart.

thanks a lot :-)
