Coherent: Ajax Cocoa Bindings

Here’s another interesting tool for you JavaScript programmers; a library that implements Cocoa Bindings for your next game changing AJAX app. As they state at their Flickr browsing demo:

“Flickr Browser is a demo of the Coherent library, which is a blatant rip off, er, loving copy of Apple’s Cocoa Bindings technology for the Web.”

Heh. Well, if you design using MVC, even if you’ve never heard of Cocoa Bindings, you’ll probably find the library interesting at the least, check it out!

Project page is here.

h/t: ajaxian!

    Alex, thanks for the kind words. I’ve tried very hard to make Coherent be the best way to develop mvc apps on the client, but it also works great if your not doing mvc. And it also performs nicely on the iPhone.

    The bonus on the iPhone is you don’t have to write getter and setter methods. Coherent will automattically wrap your properties and send change notifications. It feels a lot like Obj-C 2.0.
