Enyojs

When the first devices running Mozilla mobile operating system were announced, I must admit I was a bit disappointed - low end devices, non-emotional hardware design, software still running in alpha status. On the bright side, this also meant it would be inexpensive to try out the new system on real hardware!

In Germany, Congstar announced the availability of the Alcatel Onetouch Fire for the end of October 2013, so I ordered one of those - in green, to match my Linux desktop theme. Two days ago, it was delivered to me, and I was anxious to put a SIM in and give it a shot as my daily driver for some time. Today, I stopped using it again and went back to my Nokia Lumia 820.

Finally I could spend some time to play around with FirefoxOS - I have ordered an Alcatel One Touch Fire (colored green, of course) and am awaiting its delivery.

I have put up a simple and small app project, creating a cartoon reader for my favorite strip - “Dilbert” by Scott Adams. It has little features. I wanted to start playing around with HTML5-apps and also tried to estabish a development environment using harpjs. When thinking about starting this, I wanted to use enyojs which is targeting web-applications built for cross-plattform deployment. After setting up the bootplate, I found myself thinking the app I wanted to create was a little too small to bring in a full-fledged javascript framework, so I started over using just plain javascript.

Seit heute sind mein Blog und mein Redmine grün! Anstatt heute abend etwas Sinnvolles zu tun - zum Beispiel meine Steuererklärung oder weitere Arbeit an meiner Enyo-App… Ach ja - meine ownCloud-Instanz habe ich ebenfalls auf die aktuelle Version aktualisiert. Da hat das Herunterladen aber länger gedauert als das Update.

Mit dem grünen Anstrich harmonisiere ich endlich meinen online-Auftritt mit meinem Haus - das hat auch einen grünen Farbstreifen in der Mitte… Außerdem bekenne ich mich wieder offen zu openSUSE, nachdem ich ja vorher eher im Archlinux-Blau daher gekommen bin.
