I have often thought about an IDE for 2 reasons:
  • 1. RAD
  • 2. Having an app that uses the OACS data model, but using it locally.
Many organiziations still enjoy the MS Acess style desktop application and that doesn't translate well to the web. Things like drop down box population etc that can only be done with browser side programming.

If anyone is interested in extending the Visual TCL app or even starting something from scratch, I would be most interested and I think it would be a huge win for the community.
