TideSDK handles the packaging and bundles everything into packaging native to the platform. You don't have to worry about what to include because it is gathered and packaged for you.
Perhaps it may seem so. That said, the original Wunderlist was likely the most infamous use of the original technology that reached millions of users.
It's no slight against its makers to have gone purely native but the fact is that most companies developing a todo app do not have millions in investment or the sort of native programming capacity to throw at this kind of project.
TideKit is a solution that is going to get you on all platforms quickly and its only improving over time. As you might be aware, the new Wunderlist 2 seemed to have lost its linux support as a result of their recent shift.
We're hoping to show something quite soon that shows a speed and quality of development that will have most wundering why they transitioned to native.
I think what the guy you're replying to was saying is that the entire page seems to be about Wunderlist, when they no longer use this SDK, and their use of it isn't really that complex.
Perhaps it would be better to show some actual users with a carousel type thing?
Our thank you on our landing page is not about identifying partners. It is an expression of our thanks for organizations that have helped us by donating software or services to allow us to continue developing TideSDK. Hope that helps to clarify this.
Titanium was transitioned to TideSDK in early 2012. At this point the code lacked support for any modern operating system other than Windows 7. Ubuntu and OSX support for any current versions of these OS's did not yet exist.
The challenges involved in moving forward with the code base from the previous maintainer were documented in this post:
The work has been steady and ongoing. The software itself is complex and substantial progress has been made. More that 1 million line changes of code were made to end of Dec, 2012.
This kind of investment and involvement in this project has been huge for us. It is certainly deeper than the rebranding and documentation effort that we also undertook as part of the project.
TideSDK became an affiliate project of Software in the Public Interest (SPI) in October, 2012. As part of this non-profit organization, we stand together with other significant and substantial open source projects (including Postgres, Drupal, Debian, Jenkins, ArchLinux) that are under the non-profit administration of the SPI.
Tens of thousands of developers now discovering TideSDK as a result of our efforts. This number is steadily increasing. Ongoing upgrades and fundamental code changes in the sources are leading to an amazing solution.
Commercial developments involving TideSDK are also underway for many. Obviously, despite the surge in mobile use, desktop development is comparatively smaller. That said, there remains an important need to address for the desktop that TideSDK is filling.
We've put plenty of effort into establishing community around TideSDK as well and to make resources available to developers:
In addition, more great things are coming this year as the result of our involvement with TideSDK. The core talent behind TideSDK formed http://coastalforge.com to bring services and support. We've also got an amazing new solution to reveal shortly that has been spawned from our work. More on these efforts quite soon.
