I’ve done this exactly! OMG.. I guess this shows that there is truly no original idea :-) well I digress.. I didn’t try to match the desktops UI .. thats probably the hard part :-)

What I worry about is that I have no idea how long the alpha lasts. I could be done with my app during my alpha. Would I be able to deploy it?

@tiagosimoes I’d never use it myself (programmer pride!) but FWIW that looks like a seriously nice bit of software

@sixtyseconds You’re right, sorry – The Agile Platform 5.0 just went out of beta today and I got carried away.

If you have a PC you want to create web applications visually I would also suggest the free community edition of the Agile Platform.

Ooops, sorry – must read and engage brain before commenting. So you get the $20 knocked off the final price of the product. Fair enough, I guess but it still rankles.

My idea of a beta is something along the lines of… Here’s some software that’s not ready yet, it may well still have some bugs in it. If you find those bugs you don’t need to be upset, because you haven’t paid for it, but in return I’d like you to tell me about the problem so I can fix it and release a good product that I can charge money for.

Paying for the privilege of QAing someone else’s software seems a bit off to me.
