Announcing Sprouts! (was AsProject)

Posted by Luke Bayes Wed, 13 Jun 2007 17:17:00 GMT

I just wanted to get out a quick announcement before too much more time went by….

I introduced AsProject in April and have since been redesigning it under a new, much more manageable project called Sprouts. Just yesterday it reached a point where it’s at least testable on both OS X and Windows (with Cygwin).

I’m looking for some help getting it production ready (check out the issues list) and feature feedback from the community before I go much further.

Please check it out and let me know what you think, what it needs, and what doesn’t work the way you expect.

sudo gem install sprout
sprout -s mxml SomeProject
cd SomeProject/project

script/generate class utils.MathUtil
rake test

sudo gem install sprout
sprout -s as2 OtherProject
cd OtherProject/project
rake

script/generate class utils.MathUtil
rake test

Finally, you can run the same script with the sprout -s as3 for a vanilla ActionScript 3 project too!

We’re hoping to get some Haxe templates in at some point, if you’re interested in building them, they’re quite easy and I’ll be glad to help get you started!
