When I run sc-build, the output is placed in ./tmp/build/static/app_name/en/b82a3bf91217954903a4fd7da14707caa9f47520. This page in the Sproutcore wiki suggests that the guid/uuid directory is the build number. Deploying When you are ready to deploy your app, all you need to do is run sc-build. sc-build generates a bundle of HTML, JS, and CSS inside a directory with [...]
Note This tutorial is for Sproutcore 1.X. I’ve written a similar tutorial for Sproutcore 2 here. OK. I’ve reach the point in my Sproutcore understanding where I feel I can attempt to write a CRUD demo app. Get the code here. See it in action here. The demo app allows the user to: Create a [...]
Got this tip from Colin Codes. Standard Sproutcore Install I’ve installed Sproutcore using However, this is NOT the latest development code. It is the latest released code.

For some reason, I could [...]
I was trying to understand how a “login” user case scenario would work with Sproutcore. The sproutweet sample was a good starting point but it took me a while to come to grips with how it works. The complexities of twitter integration took time to understand. I wrote this bare-bones login sample to experiment on [...]
I found the official Sproutcore 1.0 sample a bit difficult to understand for a newbie like me. I’ve written a bare-bone basic route_sample to show how to use the SC.routes class. Get the code here. See it in action here. The sample performs the following functions: There are two pages: one_page and two_page. Upon start up, [...]
Here’s the offical line. In short, it is a tool for building a rich desktop client application. It communicates to the server using standard web protocols: HTTP and XML/JSON. The server can be developed in any technology as long as it can support the HTTP and XML/JSON protocol. How is it different from standard web [...]
Just say you created the Hello World app with: This will create folder structure like: To create a second app called bye_world, use You will then have the directory structure sc-init has the command line: Tweet
Just stumbled on Sproutcore. Very interesting client side javascript MVC framework. Abstracts HTML/CSS/DOM to make it more like good ol’ WinForms. There’s even work on a WinForms like designer. We are back full circle (again!) 1970-80′s: Centralized mainframe apps 1990′s: Client-server (Winform apps using DCOM, SOM … yes I worked on IBM SOM for those who remember it) [...]
