Sproutcore

By dp1244 on Day 2, March 2010

I wanted to know more about Sproutcore, the open source framework that allows you to create native style applications on the web.  There’s not much for me to mention. I mainly was running through the tutorial.  It was great fun and I got to use the Terminal alot which always denotes a feeling of authenticity.

Difficulties

The main issue was learning about bash inputs.  There was a string of code that read:

export PATH=`pwd`/abbot/bin:$PATH

I assumed I was supposed to just type that in.  That doesn’t work.  I learned that some computers have .bashrc

I don’t have that either.  But I do have a .bashprofile and that’s where I needed to add the export path.  After that, it was simply a matter of going in Terminal, typing up to the directory I plan on working on and running sc-server.  Good times!
