### Benefits of Cappuccino for Application Development:
- Cross-platform development – any programmer's text editor or IDE is sufficient. The compiler and other parts of the toolchain used to prepare applications for deployment are hosted by Node.js.
* Toolchain stability – use of time-tested APIs means an absense of the churn which is all too common in the current generic browser-app ecosystem.

* Cocoa's rich range of interface controls are abstracted to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. These go well beyond the functionality provided by current browser standards, and only require minimal HTML5 support.
* These design patterns and APIs provide a solid foundation for application development. The APIs have been proven over forty years and provide browser-independent functionality which is a superset of current browser capabilities.
* Custom interface controls can reliably build on basic Cocoa controls - when extended or new functionality is required.

* Consistent and predictable behavior across different platforms enhances reliability and user experience.
* Objective-J's [message-passing architecture](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_passing), which the Cocoa APIs leverage, promote loose coupling of an app's component functionality — making large scale development more managable.
* Comprehensive documentation for Objective-J is supplemented by over two decades of resources for Objective-C and Cocoa. Additionally, a large public catalog of Objective-C Cocoa applications offers valuable guidance for development. Translation of such sample code to Objective-J is often trivial.
* Toolchain stability – use of time-tested APIs means an absense of the churn which is all too common in the current generic browser-app ecosystem.
