Screenshots of Project Amanda (prototype)

Here are the first screenshots of Project Amanda. These are UI mockups done in Darkstar Layout and all the code is in XML and Javascript. Please understand that this is not a real application. This is a super-duper alpha and it might not get built at all.

Darkstar Layout does not support includes, but it does support Java components. So I am simply creating multiple Layout objects (com.teppefall.ds.layout.Layout) within one Layout object and replacing the layout at runtime through drag and drop. So these four UI states are actually made up of eight XML files. Each a component on its own and reusable in other applications.

Project Amanda might become a small rich Internet application developer environment. It is simply a remix of my current code base. Colorspace is the most downloaded application so far, so there might be some interest in fast, to the point, creative tools. I might use some of Adobe's RIA standards to keep things simple.

But again.. this is just me thinking out loud.
