Revolution

RunRev Revolution is a rapid development tool. It is cross-platform (Mac, Windows, Linux) and uses an easy to learn scripting language called revTalk, which provides programmers' power to scripters.
Revolution can be used for any scale of project: for example single use text processing utilities, complex applications, prototyping, and can be learnt by professionals, hobbyists or beginners.

News

The Rodeo is coming to town!

RodeoApple has changed the iPhone developer agreement so that all apps for the iPhone/iPad App store must be written in Objective-C, C or C++ or in Javascript for use in the browser. As a Revolution developer, this is a blow, since I find developing in Objective-C too slow. So it looks like web apps are the way to go instead, but even they require extensive knowledge of HTML, CSS, Javascript etc. Jerry Daniels has come up with a plan to allow quick and easy development for the iPad. Rodeo is the name of this new project. Check out the introductory videos for more details.

New editor available for RunRev

tRevJerry Daniels of GLX fame has now created a new editor for RunRev. tRev is a standalone app that interacts with RunRev via sockets. Visit the Rev Editor site and check out the videos, especially the earlier ones, to see how to use tRev.

Sample Stacks

These stacks are all freely available. They are supplied as-is and any use is at your own risk.
Some of the stacks are also usable online as a revlet, if you have the RevWeb plugin installed.
Click any 'Revlet' link to see the stack or to see a download link for the plugin.

If you include any of these stacks or code in an application, please credit Sarah Reichelt, TrozWare.

DragLauncher
With Snow Leopard, double-clicking on a stack file when Revolution is already running will report a stack corruption error and not open the stack. This plugin provides a workaround, with a small window that opens in Rev that you can drag stacks on to it to have them open, instead of having to use "Open Stack...".
