Writing a desktop application with Ext, AIR, Aptana, and Red Bull

Category: Adobe, Aptana, Gears, Offline, Sencha

<p>Jack Slocum has kicked off his new Ext JS blog with an entry on his experience writing an application with Ext JS, AIR, Aptana, and lots of Red Bull.

As part of the experience Jack has created Ext.air.MainWindow which makes your AIR window look like a Ext.Window.

Jack actually created two versions, the online one actually uses Google Gears, and he abstracted the database access via Ext.data.SqlDB.

Does anybody else think “Jack Slocum” sounds like a pseudonym?
