Cappuccino is an Application Framework designed for creating desktop class applications on the web. Cappuccino is written in Objective-J, a language extension to JavaScript that adds classical inheritance, script importing, and a bunch of other goodies without breaking backwards compatibility.

Getting Started

• If you’re new to Objective-J and Cappuccino, you might want to start by downloading the Cappuccino Starter Kit and reading through a few of the tutorials and demos on the main site. All the demos are hosted on github as well.
• There’s also a set of Tools you can download that can help you develop, debug, and deploy. Check out this high level overview of the tools.
• Cappuccino apps are essentially the front of a whole system. To communicate with the server side scripts and databases, it will have to do these Client-server Communications.
