My XULRunner tutorial
Jason Oster
I've been working on a [novice] XULRunner tutorial in my spare time.
Because I am a super-noob with XUL and XULRunner, don't expect this to
be mind-blowing or perfect. I am currently looking for ideas,
suggestions, and criticisms for this little pet project.
I started writing this to teach myself the basics of XULRunner and get
into the groove of development with the platform. I'm hoping it could
also be useful for other newcomers!
Currently, two parts are written. I am planning for a third part at the
moment (as soon as I can actually finish doing what I will be writing
about!) There is not much to it, but I think everything described is
fairly accurate. Please let me know what you think!
Start here:

javascript SDKs and how they work with XUL.
Ample SDK, http://www.amplesdk.com ,has just gone open source - it
looks as if it might work with XUL, but will it?....

Simon,
Thanks for the comments.
I'm not sure I understand the purpose of AmpleSDK in a XULRunner
application. (In a XUL application -- yes! AmpleSDK will allow it to
run as a web-app, cross-browser.) XULRunner already supports
XUL/SVG/etc! It may be useful for framework features, like you might
find in jQuery, Dojo, Prototype, ...
But then again, I haven't even decided if I want to use any of those
frameworks in my own apps. It might be useful to investigate for the
tutorial, if nothing else!
