Titanium Developer 1.3.0

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

This is a TiDEV 1.3.0

If you are wondering "why should I switch to Titanium Studio is the only thing interesting in this new IDE is debugging (which is not free)" or is one of several people who did not like the Titanium Studio, for whatever their reasons, and want to continue using the TiDev but should have read this: "Titanium Developer has Been Replaced by Titanium Studio. Although the source code remains open source, we will no longer be Maintaining this code or releasing any new versions." do not worry because the community should continue the project.

I decided to start it, and I'm making big changes.

I'm working on it, and i will put all changes in this repo very soon:

https://github.com/adrianopaladini/titanium_developer

Some of the improvements:

-No Community Perspective (useless)

-No Ads (All advertisements are old and not good for anything)

-Universal Build

-works with mobileSDK 1.8.0

-Device selector to run

-button to launch forced full compile

-a File list of project with code editor

and a lot of more!

if you want help, just giving ideas or even making updates to the code, is very welcome!

WOW!!!

This question is in fourth place in "Most Votes" in Q&A in just one day, the third most votes needed one year to get it!

I think this shows how much the developers want it.

Does Appcelerator will realize the importance of this?

Very nice work. I will be using this as I'm not a fan of Studio.

I´m also not a big fan of Ti Studio, thanks for updating this project!!!

  • Very nice, especially the "Dashboard, Edit Profile" etc. bar. The New Project and Import Project icons could be more improved though. Have you read my mail?

  • Yes, i read, and i follow you on twitter, but you can't receive messages from me because you don't follow me

... and thanks Adriano. Perhaps I should be paying my Indie subscription fee to you, at least you understand developer needs!

TiDev 2.0 - Soon

I'm working on TiDev Community 2.0.

It is being done from scratch.

Completely reworked, very small, fast and easy to use.

I will put some screens soon.

So that is already usable, I will post a link to the source code.

  • Great news. Keep it up!

    — commented 6 months ago by Marco Ferreira

  • Adriano - If you need help with the project let me know. I've submitted updates to the current project, would love to help.

    — commented 6 months ago by John Welch

Adriano, I really like to work with you on this in terms of design. I have already started working on some new design ideas but can't fully implement it myself. I also have a new icon. If you have Twitter, contact me at @VorteXLP please. If not, please reply with your e-mail address :)

Please also remove the analytics and need to be connect to appecelerator. Let me now if you need help as I already have a build with those 'features' removed.

  • Hello,

    I do not believe that removing the require of online use would be an improvement, since the analitics and especially the compilation of a desktop application require this. we can maybe think about how to make a choice for users...

    — commented 11 months ago by Adriano Paladini

  • Ah yes, of course, an option would be perfect. Saude!

    — commented 11 months ago by John Olmstead

Good work, but it looks kinda odd in Lion. The design needs some fixes, if you'd like me to help..

Please include more file types for text editing. One example would be .SVG Thank you, you do an amazing job!

  • Hi, the Code Editor is still a work in progress, and there is still much to be as it should. Even today I will update it, because it is not saving yet :-(

    — commented 11 months ago by Adriano Paladini

Looking good thus far, except for one rather important thing. I can't comment on the Linux/OSX versions, but the current Windows release is sluggish to the point of frustration. Anyone else noticing this? One of our other in-house developers had the same problem during testing. Simply couldn't get anything done. It was simply too heavy. Could well be the new graphics added to it.

  • I have the same problem, it is painfully slow, but may be it is my laptop. Everybody seems excited by TiDev Community and I'd really like to try :'( I'll wait for the next release to see if it is better!

  • Yes on W7 on 2.8 Mhz laptop ; it is running like a sloth

    — commented 10 months ago by John Mohan

  • Yup, me too. really really slow.

I am forever grateful for you for taking the time and effort to do this.

It's always gratifying to see when a company drops an OSS project and the community picks up the ball and makes it ever so much better.

way cool! i've just installed it, looks great.

Damn this looks nice!

Will the app notify us when there's update for the app itself or the SDK?

They fixed the js parser in Studio regarding the one-lined (?) if and else lines.

TiDev used to output this:

[WARN] JavaScript compiler reported "Expected '{' and instead saw 'label'." at windows/new.js:201
for code like this:
if(lol) laugh();
else cry();
They fixed it in Studio but it's still here in TiDev Community, could that be fixed?

Many thanks!

  • This is a serious issue. Have this fixed and we will be able to really use TiDev C. Most of the javascript libraries that a developer uses get warnings and errors in TiDev and nothing like that in the new Titanium Studio.

    — commented 9 months ago by Christian Tzurcanu

One of the reasons me (and my company) chose Titanium Developer was that it didn't try to be anything more than it needed, no editor, no IDE. Too bad appcelerator is forcing us to use their studio, as I prefer editing my code on my own terms, as I'm sure many others do.

That said, thanks for this. Though I'm not sure if this is "future proof". Will the changes appcelerator makes to their APIs be available in TiDev Community right away?

  • Chris, Studio does not build the apps, it is simply an interface to call python build scripts just like Ti Developer was... you might already know this, but just a reminder :)

    — commented 10 months ago by Matt Apperson

  • It may simply be an interface, but it's not a simple interface.. :)

    — commented 10 months ago by Chris Leuenberger

I think it is not in the interest of Appcelerator to treat the TiDev Community as second class citizens, and I dont think they will, you can check the evolution of the API on the continuous build page.

Havent even seen it and i know i like it, Dev>Studio and the way this go now that will be the case for some time.

Many thumbs up for updating the TiDev

  • Just downloaded it, works great. Love what you did to the UI, verry clean etc. keep up the good works.

    — commented 9 months ago by Kami -

Latest version has some issues with the mouse right-click in the code editor (blank menu).

This is on OSX Lion

Submitted a fix for the project drop down to properly update on Windows 7, 64 bit.

Hi All,

Sorry for this long time of waiting, but i'm very busy. I will release in next days the first version of "TiDev 2"

In this version:

- Create from scratch;
- Small and Fast;
- Mobile 2.0 runtime;
- No more online use;
- Local Package for Desktop (initial)

Is there a way to have one project which is universal for iPhone and iPad and also has ability to build for Android?

At the moment if I create mobile project I see small iPhone app when running on iPad simulator.

If I create universal iOS project iPad app looks fine but there is no ability to run for Android.

Thank You. After struggling to get the Java Monster to behave (500MB+ of memory and growing) I had a look around and found the old Developer still alive and kicking.

Personally I think that the Eclipse route was a big mistake for Appcelerator. It would be nice if they could explain the thinking behind the move.

I can provide another link with titanium developer (linux 32bit)

I can't download now, thanks.

I've been absent from the Titanium Community for the past half-year or so. Is it correct that currently TiDev Community is available in Version 1.3.03 and that this version does not support iOS 5.1? TiDev 2.0 does not yet seem to be available and in 1.3.03 I cannot select 5.1 from the iOS SDK pulldown.

I am running OS X 10.7.3 with XCode 4.3.2 and Titanium SDK 2.0.1.GA2.

  • Nevermind, my bad. It works when you change the XCode location.

    For those having the same problem, the XCode location changed for 4.3.2 (Lion release) because it's installed by the App Store into the /Applications directory. Run this command in your Terminal (and maybe restart TiDev) and you should be good to go: sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer.

    Thank you Adriano for your work on TiDev Community, I'm quite happy not to use the Studio as I never code in an IDE. Keep up the good work, can't wait for 2.0.
