Ratchet Dream

[Marcel Overdijk]

"Even these are just the short-term goals though. We eventually want to extend Ratchet beyond the prototying for iPhone and create HTML/CSS/JS components for iPad and Android devices. Our dream is that Ratchet becomes the best way to create mobile experiences with web standard languages."

 

Ratchet's above dream is really great, but after releasing and annoucing Ratchet it has become quiet...

Everybody understand that this dream will take blood, sweat and tears to implement, but I wonder where Ratchet is heading to at the moment?

Especially extending Ratchet beyond the prototype and support for Android devices.

 

What can we expect from Ratchet in the near future?

 

At the moment it's a nice sales pitch, but nothing more.

I am at this very moment developing fully html5 application for iPhone using some Ratchet components. This is a great experience not only for prototyping, I am already pretty sure about that.

So extending Ratchet in this direction is extremely cool idea! Looking forward!

Hope it goes on as it's very promissing project. But right now it looks almost like the project is on standby.

+1 I recently checked lots of projects for mobile development, although not finished Ratchet feels better than Sencha Touch (too heavy and slow) or jQuery Mobile (there are visual twitching).

Would be nice to have more examples and components.

This project is awesome, it has a lot potential, i really wish to see Androids and even Windows Phone running this project.

[Jean-Philippe Encausse]

Agreed this project seems great, but how does it behave with other devices Android / Windows Phone ?

Is it planned in the RoadMap or just a Dream ?

I see @fat is one of the developers, so what to think about Ratchet vs Bootstrap 3.0 ?

Check out my project to continue the greatness that Ratchet brought us.

A similar project I found:

I wouldn't expect the authors of Ratchet to give us new candy

It's an open source project, you are free to extend it

To clarify it would be great if development on Ratchet continued and I would love it

but I wouldn't "expect" it
