@carlw Ironically, the issues they faced with builders would actually be quite easy to solve with Kotlin extension functions.

@edvin and FXLauncher!

Also interesting: The Kotlin closure is automatically the last parameter.

@hastebrot That's so perfect for builders 🙂

One liners like that can also benefit from this shortened syntax:

fun foo(bar: String = "bar", baz: (String) -> String = { bar }) = baz(bar)

nice screencast

Thanks 🙂 Some times I don't go in the direction I want, and I almost never do a retake, so I don't know if the way I showed scoping was the best, but I'll try to expand on that in the next screencast where I want to transfer the data in the scope instead.

well I understood it

That's a relief. Thank you 🙂

I was very interested in the scope but I have not read anything about it yet in the code

RL is a bitch at the moment

I was thinking about we needing a kick ass showcase of an application

showing a few of the strengths that I feel are under displayed at the moment like the JSON model stuff and the rest client with built in progressbar

ever thought about using trello public api ?

@ron That's a great idea. I use it a lot and you're right - it's a powerful feature that hasn't gotten much attention.

@ron The reason you haven't read anything about in the code is that the footprint is so small. It's literally just a few lines of code.

That's why it took so long to write.. hehe

I did some drag and drop stuff in the kphoto thingy I played with. that code could be re used to move cards from one list to the other

Sweet! We absolutely need a lot of samples for the kitchen sink moving forward. I'll add at least one sample per week.

this trello thing I think would be seperate from the kitchensink

I can start working on it, but I will not finish it alone, my RL is too busy and bitchy at the moment (never do work for an organisation that is in flux!)

What about creating a small sample for the kitchensink first, and then move into a larger app if needed? I kind of went all out with the github sample, but I've never looked at it again. It's probably not a good idea to invest too much money in a "product" you probably will never use (if it's just for demo purposes)

that would work, I will whip something up in the coming days

Nice. Have a nice evening, Ron. I'll enjoy a whisky and watch some TV myself 🙂

@edvin Did you see this week's SHIELD?

@edvin I just finished the screencast. It made sense to me, but you've already explained it to me, so I may not be a fair judge.

Nonetheless, it was a well done screencast for an awesome feature

@Ruckus I just finished watching it now 🙂 I'm curious to see how the Model-In-Scope counterpart will turn out. Going to try to get it done tomorrow.
