Simple Programming By Imitation! | |
Simple Programming
The Register has just posted a review of an interesting piece of software: Java Applets for the Masses. The software, Imitate, allows non technical people to develop Java applets for websites. This is done by modeling imitation learning -- hence the name I presume ;) Though I've no idea about the product itself, this seems like a great step in the right direction: opening up development to everyone and getting computers to assist the process. |

programming IDEs
To me it seems that there are lots of possible things you could do with programming IDEs to make the whole programming and debugging process easier. At work I use some proprietory languages for embedded systems where you can integrate functional diagrams right into the code and you can see variables and functions connected together in a graphical way. Unfortunately the big companies such as microsoft have steadfastly refused to make any real innovations in their programming IDEs for at least the last 5 years. So it makes a refreshing change to see folks making an effort to go beyond just text editing and wizards. - Bob |
