Questions tagged [dashcode]

Dashcode is a graphical IDE bundled in Apple Developer Tools and aimed at the development of Dashboard widgets and Safari Web applications (for both Mobile Safari and standard Safari browser).

Dashcode to create two types of projects:

  • Dashboard widgets—simple, lightweight applications that perform a single task in the Mac OS X Dashboard environment. Widgets are actually packaged webpages powered by standard web technologies such as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and JavaScript.
  • Web applications—webpages that provide discrete functionality to users. Web applications also make use of web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Dashcode helps you create mobile Safari web applications, which are also known as iPhone web applications (that is, web applications optimized to run in Safari on iPhone), and Safari web applications (that is, web applications optimized to run in Safari).

Dashcode’s integrated environment allows you to lay out, code, and even test widgets and web applications without opening any other applications. Its layout tools, composers, and editors simplify the process of creating all the resources these projects need. Dashcode also includes handy coding and debugging tools that help you manage and test the code you write.
