BB10: Layouts
June 24, 2012

All very reasonable. I'm still trying to sort out in my head good ways to create device independent layouts, etc. For example, will it be natural to create UIs that look great on both BB10 phones and the PlayBook?


BB10: Images

Something that caught me off guard here is "9 slice scaling". Wow. Having that baked right into the framework is wonderful.


BB10: Tutorial: Custom QML components
June 24, 2012

https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/documentation/ui/custom_components/custom_components_tutorial.html

I'm really enjoying the tutorials that have been created for learning Cascades.

This tutorial, which results in a little post card app, is a great demonstration of Cascades.

What tops it off is that changes to the post card's size and rotation are animated for free.

The whole BB10 / Cascades experience seems pretty exciting, all the way from the languages and dev tools used, to the end user experience.
