Hi all,<br> After Jameson encouraging support, I think I should discuss my proposal "Marbles" with you all once again. <br><br><b>Marbles</b><br> Marbles aim to build a UI Designer/Creator tool for sugar . The Tool
would allow users to drag and drop widgets. Edit the widgets and their
properties and also to create custom widgets. The Tool can also be used
to connect actions to various signals from the user via the UI and will finally generate code which can be run directly. It can
be written either in Wx or Qt making it platform independent. And the
generation of code can also made to work on any platform. In short, it would be a stripped down but effective version of Glade ported to sugar. <br><br><br><b>Design Approach</b><br> It's a UI builder tool for creating UI applications. Detailed discussion on this can be found at <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles#Basic_Design_Principles" target="_blank">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles#Basic_Design_Principles</a>. <br>
I have also considered to use existed UI builder for sugar . Here are my results/findings <a href="http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/user/chasedspeed/marbles" target="_blank">http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/user/chasedspeed/marbles</a>.<br>
<br><b>Benefits</b><br> 1. Promote healthy brain development<br> 2. Preparing young children for digital programming enviroment. <br> 3. Boost child learning process and success.<br> 4. Support for developers for future advancements ( like addition of widgets, events etc. )<br>
<br>Sugar Wiki-Link : <a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles" target="_blank">http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles</a><br><br>Once again, Thank you jameson for bringing my proposal to review. I would like to request all community members to go to the sugar-wiki page and give valuable comments/ suggestions . Your feedback will help me to remain positive. <br>
<br>Thanks,<br>Puneet<br><br>
