Glimmer is a JRuby API for SWT that
takes advantage of the expressive Ruby language to provide a simple
user-interface DSL (domain-specific language). Developers can rely on Glimmer
to build the presentation layer of desktop applications in Ruby while keeping
the business logic in Java, or alternatively do complete desktop application
development in Ruby. Glimmer comes with built-in data-binding support to
greatly facilitate writing maintainable and testable desktop application code.
In an upcoming webinar, Andy Maleh will introduce
Glimmer, demo the latest features by contrasting the code of an application
written in both Glimmer and classic SWT, provide a quick update on the status
of the project and finally, have a Q&A and feedback session.
