Finally a Sunday, after a hectic week, a day to relax, I was just googling around till I came across this site, 280Slides. You can create presentations online, It had some nice features we would normally use to create presentations and was pretty easy understand and work on. I was amazed that such a powerful application running on a web browser !? I decided to do a research on how this application was built (since it was not Flash) and Cappuccino was my answer.

“Cappuccino is an open source framework that makes it easy to build desktop-caliber applications that run in a web browser.” is the line which you would notice on the front page of their site.

It seems Cappuccino was built on technologies like Javascript and implements some APIs from GNUstep and Apple’s Cocoa Frameworks as given in their website. There is also no need to type out any HTML or CSS codes. Cappuccino is more focused on building web applications that are as powerful as their desktop counterparts. There is one just essential to know while building applications using Cappuccino, Objective-J and one set of APIs.

Interesting…I have downloaded their starter pack (1.5MB – Download HERE), I`ll try to snoop more around their API and lets see what I can come up with Meanwhile, you can check out their Demos -Here and some Tutorials – Here.
