Livecode / Github

[Martin Koob]

Hi SKIP

Welcome back to the list!

There is Levure which I knew of as a third party application framework created by Trevor DeVore but I just did a search for it and I see it now on the LiveCode website described as an App Collaboration Framework.  https://livecode.com/products/livecode-platform/levure/ <https://livecode.com/products/livecode-platform/levure/>  So it must have at some point migrated to the mother ship.

I haven’t used it but I have considered migrating my application to it.  It works with version control systems as long as you follow its recommendations about how to organize your code into behaviours that are stored in script only stacks which are just text files that a version control system can read (These are somewhat new so depending on when you last used LiveCode they may be new to you.)  This was an enhancement that has enabled the use of version control for scripts in a project. It is the binary stacks that versions control systems can’t track so in Levure those are just used for user interface.

Hope this helps.

Martin
