Maqetta

[Fedor Biryukov]

Hi there!

Does anybody know why IBM has stopped funding Maqetta development?

Maqetta relies heavily on the dojo toolkit. Does anyone know how to make it use a different framework?

Thanks!

Fedor

Hi Fedor,

I cannot answer personally for IBM, but my perception is that they had
hoped to build a community of people interested in contributing, but
building something like Maqetta is not something to easily/casually
contribute to, and their business made the decision to stop investing in
the effort.

Maqetta was built with Dojo, though I believed it supported jQuery and
other UI widgets if you wrapped them in some logic to bind properties
(data, css, dom, etc.) into something Maqetta could understand. I do not
believe it is possible to make Maqetta generate code for any other
framework or toolkit (React, Angular, Dojo 2, etc.) without substantial
effort in rebuilding their platform.

Regards,
-Dylan

Hi Dylan,

Thanks a lot for sharing your opinion with me!

In my eyes Maqetta has a low ROI. Your guess is more mature.

Does anyone else have a clue?

I tried to contact IBM, filled out a contact form and got a very formal reply linking to an article about Maqetta and suggesting to contact IBM in other countries. Will do. Who knows, maybe someone will shed light on that.

Regards,

Fedor

I have been working on something similar to Maqetta that will produce Dojo 2 code if that is of interest.

@bobmanc
Could you share some details (github repo?). I am on Maqetta since a few years and I am also looking to rewrite it from scratch for dojo-2 but also other frameworks (ionic). Thanks a lot.
