Morfik makes it to the Wikipedia

It looks like a number of Pioneers’ collaborated to get Morfik onto Wikipedia . Thanks guys as you have put some interesting things there! Look forward to seeing what else pops-up! :-)

Launch of Morfik Languages Guide

Mauricio Longo, author of the Developer’s Handbook, gives us a guide to Morfik Languages. This guide, which is still in draft form, was written for the developer who is coming to Morfik 07 (WebOS AppsBuilder Release 1) and wants to know how his language of choice is supported in the product. No Web application development techniques are discussed in this guide; its focus is solely to describe programming languages and the details of their support within Morfik 07.

This book is divided into four parts, each of them covering one of the supported programming languages, Morfik Basic, Morfik Pascal, MorfkJ (Java-like), Morfik C# (still to come). You can download the guide from MorfikWiki .

Ajax Magazine - Introduction to Morfik Architecture

Ajax Magazine has written an insightful two part ( Part I, Part II) article on Morfik architecture covering the following topics.

- Basic architecture of WebOS applications
- WebOS application programming model
- The event driven nature of Morfik WebOS applications
- Morfik's design methodology for building WebOS Applications.

This article follows on from their three part series ( Part I, Part II, Part III) review of the WebOS AppsBuilder in February.

US Patent & Trademark Office Gives Access to Morfik’s First Patent Application

The USPTO made available for public viewing, Morfik’s first patent application titled “System and method for synthesizing object-oriented high-level code into browser-side JavaScript”. The patent abstract states “A system and method are provided to enable developers of web sites and software applications to code in an object-oriented high-level language that is compiled into a browser-side JavaScript which can be natively interpreted by a browser. This enables developers to program in a high-level language of choice to create browser-side web applications, instead of directly using the target lower-level language JavaScript.”

This news item was slashdotted and covered by Richard MacManus and more recently by InformationWeek and Optimize .

Optimize in their article titled “Who Needs Patents? Start Ups Do To Protect Their Inventions” succinctly presents Morfik’s views in the following quote:

"This is a good example of why we have software patents," writes Ronald Rily, president of the Professional Inventors Alliance USA. "A software invention is ideal for inventors in that it allows them to start with very low capital," he notes. Without protection for their invention, however, they will not have the chance to develop it and mature as companies, he explains. The patent system was meant to encourage small company activity, not large company threat-posturing or patent trading.

“I’m seriously excited about Morfik. I love it. As I was reading through the Morfik site my eyes got as big as saucers! I was literally bouncing on my seat saying, ‘That’s what I’ve been looking for! Morfik made me realise, ‘Hey, I’ve done this before. I know how to do this!’ I wanted to start putting stuff on the form, compiling it, and running it. It's the best investment I ever made."
