thanks carla.

I was wondering how it compares with Spec because the idea behind spec is to factor out the logic of the application.

I will discuss with esteban.

Hi Stef!

The goal is that Mars works on Mac, Linux and also Windows later, and it will have a bridge for each platform. So far there is a bridge for Cocoa and another one for GTK, and later I will introduce the bridge for Windows.

In the screencasts of my last post (http://marsonpharo.wordpress.com/2013/07/27/how-to-build-a-mars-application-first-examples/) you can find that I show 2 versions of each example: first running on Mac (with Cocoa) and then on Linux (with Gtk). Nevertheless, the code for building a Mars application is platform independent, so you write the application once and you get it working on Mac and Linux.

I haven't heard of VWxWidgets, I will check it out.

Cheers!

I thought that Mars was for Mac but it works on Linux. So is it a layer on top of GTK?
How does it compare with the binding to VWxWidgets?
What is the difference with the Cocoa native bridge?
