Module Marketplace

Hey people of Titanium!.

Ever since i saw the announcement of a module marketplace i've been excited about it, making modules and getting them from and for the community is exciting.

It also allows Titanium to grow alot faster in specific API's which is a good thing ofcourse.

Now i was wondering, is there a planned launch date or a indication. Cause last May it was already in planning but didnt hear about it anymore.

Also... if someone else from the community reads this, is there a good tutorial on how to build the modules now? I can't seem to get it working by using the current Documentation. is there a better step by step guide?

Many thanks, Patrick van Zadel

AFAIK the module marketplace should have launched in september 2010. But it will be available very soon: Please note that the Titanium+Plus marketplace is not yet available, but will be very soon

Appcelerator provides module programming guides:

• Android
• iPhone

Yeah I know.

I just finally finished the iPhone documentation and got to fixing the templates for a module now to see if i can make and or Port projects to a module.

The first release will be Titanium+Plus, which will be Appcelerator issuing a bunch of modules. The second piece will be a marketplace, which will be 3rd party modules. The reason this is split in two is that we need to figure out payment (if they have a price, many can be free), legal, etc.

1.5 is the front-burner priority now, and for those who don't know, the focus has been a lot on Android (don't worry, iOS fans, there are plenty of fixes for iOS, but we really felt that Android could use the most love).

The idea is that 1.5 would ship later this month, then Ti+, then Module Marketplace this year. Will update with firmer schedule soon.

In the meantime, please do continue to build out modules. If you'd like to do a guest blog on a module you built, we'd be happy to host it: sschwarzhoff@appcelerator.com
