Rebol Tutorial

Rebtweeter - next Generation Twitter Client: first Project Vision Draft

As I’ve announced the RebTweeter Project yesterday, I will now give the first Project Vision Draft below:

Will be a client/server application
The server can be local or remote
The client can be desktop or web in any platform/language (not limited to PHP, Java, C#,…)
For local access, non-rebol client will have to download and install Rebol/View automatically without annoying user with this task
For remote access it will use REST Web Service for all clients; message format will be a Custom Command using Rebol’s Dialect Capability (that will be “standardized” to be “open” ).
Rebol-type clients will also be able to access the server directly without using Web Service.
Web and Rebol’s type Client at least should be skinnable, power users like to be able to customize the look and feel of their applications
Extensibility: Custom Commands can be created by user / third parties locally or remotely
Custom Commands can be shared by user either privately trough kind of P2P mode or publicly on Central Server Repository.
