Javascript Client?
Added by JS Flash 752 days ago
Is it possible to create a Union Client with Javascript to use in a regular browser? Is there any stuff already built for that?
Thanks in advance!

it's definitely possible, and I've heard of one developer starting on it, but there's nothing public that i know of at the moment. to implement a javascript client, you'd have to follow the UPC spec posted here:
http://unionplatform.com/specs/upc/
once you've got the connection management built, it's "just" a matter of sending and receiving messages according to the spec. our goal is to make it possible for developers to implement clients in any language that supports http or sockets. (for example, as a test of our own architecture, we have already started building a java client library called Mariner.)
please let us know if you decide to try it out!
