Hi All,
There are 18 days remaining to further develop this project on the MIT Climate Co-Lab site. http://climatecolab.org/web/guest/plans/-/plans/contestId/1303501/planId/1327125 This project is to use Livecode to develop Global Warming News Readers. The goal is to use this desktop app to educate a cadre of informed, trusted messengers around the world, who can teach their families, friends, neighbors and politicians about the actions that are needed to address climate change. I argue that Livecode is the best programming language to develop this: - It’s free and open-source for developing this free app. - It’s rapid development software that is relatively easy to learn. - Livecode provides abundant assistance with tutorials and forums. - There’s a world-wide, active user community that support developers. - The source code can be distributed and modified to customize the app for different locales. Any suggestions? I’m an old mediocre Livecode programmer. I would welcome seeing some more sophisticated Global Warming Readers from our more talented LIvecoders. Up-votes for this project would be appreciated. I’ve posted a beta 1.0 version of a Global Warming Reader, developed with Livecode 8.0, DP12 at: http://globalwarmingapps.org/downloads.html The source code is also posted. I will post a beta 2.0 version later this week developed with 8.0, DP14. This uses a widget “Tree View” to simplify the user interface. Working with 8.0, DP14 is a pleasure. Best, Jim _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
