Qooxdoo 0.7.3 Release

Category: Qooxdoo

Quooxdoo 0.7.3 has been released, and although it is primarily a maintenance release, they did sneak it:

  • Cross-browser logging features based on Firebug Lite
  • A source-code validation utility similar to JSLint, executed by a simple “make lint”
  • Re-worked feedreader to demonstrate best practices for application development
  • Early preview of the next-generation build tool generator2.

The full release notes go into detail on the updates to the core framework, classes, widget system, and tools.
