This is a rather broad question :-) While our visualizations are meant to run in a standard Smalltalk environment, they are exportable to HTML. Interaction are also preserved. Here are two simple examples: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/TMP/memoryBlueprintExample.html <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/TMP/memoryBlueprintExample.html> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/online/WebReport/seisms.html <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/online/WebReport/seisms.html> And a larger and more complex example is in the file https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/TMP/ExampleReport.zip <https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/TMP/ExampleReport.zip> check the file Example.pillar.html > Will it remain a multiplatform toolbox ? Or are you heading towards a BI > desktop or Web app ? Roassal will remain closely linked to Smalltalk (VisualWorks & Pharo).
