   Explore Article Ext - A foundation you can build on (Sep 23 2008)

   As Enterprise applications begin moving to the web instead of the desktop many developers may forget about providing key bindings for their applications.

   Cappuccino’s FlickrDemo in 45 lines of jQuery When I first saw 280 North’s “280 Slides” application, I have to admit I was very impressed. They built a truly native-feeling (well, if you’re on a Mac) tool on the standard web platform. Not an easy feat, and clearly some big brains operating on the problem. But the more I read about their toolkit (Objective-J), the more unsettled I felt. It’s the same feeling I get when I see tools like Flex.

Right-click and select "Inspect element" to access it. Haven’t tried to actually debug with it yet, but it looks promising.
