The compiler and other parts of the toolchain used to prepare applications for deployment are hosted by Node.js. * 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. @@ -21,7 +22,6 @@ Cappuccino is an open-source framework developed continuously since 2008 and rel * 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.
