A couple of weeks ago, Webtop Calendar was made available as a preview release. Developers who have sifted through OpenLaszlo’s sample applications looking for coding tips might be familiar with the OpenLaszlo Calendar application. Calendar was one of the first demos to be bundled with OpenLaszlo. You can try Webtop Calendar on gowebtop.com.
Webtop Calendar is similar to OpenLazlo Calendar, and it does have some of the slick-but-significant animations that made the original demo so compelling. However it’s not merely a port of OpenLaszlo Calendar code into Webtop. That would be technically possible; you can simply drop an OpenLaszlo application into Webtop, and it should run fine. Instead, Webtop Calendar was completely rewritten to use Webtop services, and to tie into user-specific Webtop features (eventual integration with other application, etc.).
By the way, I don’t recommend looking at the OpenLaszlo Calendar code as an LZX best-practices reference. Being driven by flat XML data files, it’s not really a complete end-to-end application. LZProject is a good example application that covers everything you need to know.
