pocode: C++ library for production of interactive media across multiple platforms

pocode is an open-source C++ library designed by Potion for the production of interactive media across multiple platforms.

pocode provides a robust, high-performance software infrastructure that allows for the creation of all types of software, from simple visual sketches to elegant mobile apps to entire software applications.

pocode is much more than a graphics library. pocode allows creative coders to construct complex interactive software. Thanks to pocode’s object-oriented architecture, applications stay organized and take care of themselves. pocoders don’t have to worry about the intricacies of event routing, the frustrations of font loading or the pitfalls of porting between platforms. All of these processes are performed automatically.

pocode is also an open system that allows pocoders to dive deep into the software architecture and implement alternative methods of their own. pocoders can extend pocode with their own poObjects, and share them with other pocoders. Since all poObjects fit within pocode’s object-oriented framework, shared poObjects can easily be incorporated into new applications, even across platforms.

Chameleon: port UIKit for iOS to Mac OS X

Chameleon is a port of Apple's UIKit for iOS (and some minimal related frameworks) to Mac OS X

Image

If you're an iOS developer, you're already familiar with UIKit, the framework used to create apps for the iPhone, iPod and iPad. Chameleon is a drop in replacement for UIKit that runs on Mac OS X. In many cases, your iOS code doesn't need to change at all in order to run on a Mac.

This new framework is a clean room implementation of the work done by Apple for iOS. The only thing Chameleon has in common with UIKit are the public class and method names. The code is based on Apple's documentation and does not use any private APIs or other techniques disallowed by the Mac App Store.

VendorKit: dependency management for iOS and OSX development

Overview

VendorKit makes the process of using and managing libraries in iOS easy. VendorKit is modeled after Bundler. VendorKit streamlines the installation and update process for dependent libraries. It also tracks versions and manages dependencies between libraries.

How does it work?

VendorKit works by making direct modifications to your project file. When you install a library, vendor will copy all the source files, build setting and frameworks to your project, then save it. That way, when you want to install a library, all you have to do is add it to your Vendorfile, and then type into your Terminal vendor install

(Mobile) Web Development: PhoneGap, CoffeeScript

CoffeeScript
CoffeeScript is a little language that compiles into JavaScript. Think of it as JavaScript's less ostentatious kid brother - the same genes, roughly the same height, but a different sense of style. Apart from a handful of bonus goodies, statements in CoffeeScript correspond one-to-one with their equivalent in JavaScript, it's just another way of saying it.

Three20: collection of iPhone UI classes

Three20 is an iPhone development library. It's the code that powers the Facebook iPhone app and many other apps in the app store.

Core

Think of core as your swiss-army knife of Objective-C development. You should take some time to familiarize yourself with its features.

With the Three20 Core you can

  • generate md5 hashes from NSData objects,
  • extend the logging and debug capabilities of Xcode,
  • compare two version strings (is 3.0 older than 3.1?),
  • create non-retaining NSArrays and NSDictionaries for delegate use,
  • strip HTML tags from strings,
  • safely add non-empty, non-nil strings to NSDictionaries,
  • and format dates in relative time (5 hours ago).

You'll find all of these methods in the Three20 Xcode project in the
Global => Core and Global => Additions => Core groups.

Network

If you're building an app that uses a web-based API, Three20's Network component is going to make your job easier. Three20 supports disk and memory network caching. There is also a layer built upon requests that makes it easy to process the response data.

UI

A growing set of common views and controllers is available within the Three20 UI. The well-known Facebook photo browser/thumbnail viewer is one such controller.
