Twittia
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Twittia is a slim Twitter client for OS X written in mostly JavaScript.
|
|
It doesn't implement much of Twitters functionality, only the things **I**
|
|
care for. Therefore it is **small** and **fast** and looks good
|
|
by doing so. _"Keep it simple, stupid!"_ Is the mantra, therefore there
|
|
will not by much more functionality as it is now. But you're welcome to
|
|
fork and extend it.

Nice to know

|
------------
|
|
|
|
There was a original Twittia 1 which was written in Ruby-Cocoa, it was
|
|
quite ok back then, but the code was a mess. And then along came
|
|
Tweetie and I lost the desire to write my own Twitter client, because
|
|
it was so much further then twittia and looked nicer and so on.
|
|
|
|
But now Tweetie wasn't update for a really long time, and I really
|
|
wanted to see retweets in my stream so I decided to rip out the look
|
|
from Twittia 1 and implement it in a new much slimmer version.
|
|
|
|
And because Twitter offers a JSON API and Twittias rendering Engine is
|
|
just a simple WebKit WebView I implemented the core functionality in
|
|
JavaScript and am very happy with it. |
