Can we get iWebKit6 on track?

[Goblom]

Why is iWebKit 5 still better?

I've got to say, iWebKit 5 did everything right. It works cross platform, and is still widely used even though iWebKit 6 is out. Why is that?

1. iWebKit 6 does not support other platforms/browsers (example)
2. There is no proper documentation on how to write your own design with iWebKit6 (Take a look at Bootstraps documentation)
3. Extremely buggy, even on iPhone 4s iOS 6

Now, lets get iWebKit 6 back on track!

iWebKit6 Release Milestone

• Correctly Document iWebKit 6
• Cross Browser/Platform Support
• Smoother Page Transitions

Bugs i have found

1. Glitchy page transitions
2. Header nav buttons do not display correctly on mobile

You should consider what I've posted here as something a bit different than iWebKit 5. Whereas 1-5 were css templates basically, I wanted to broaden that to a full UI framework with version 6 with native animations. This mainly in order to use with tools like Phonegap and be able to create native iPhone apps in HTML.

There also is no documentation because this really jut is a work in progress, a pre-alpha build.

I agree with all your point about the advantages of v5 and I was maybe thinking about splitting the versions into 2 separate products but this is basically just a work in progress.

With ios7 coming out all this work was kind of wasted anyway as evidently the entire UI will need a redesign. luckily ios7 is easier to replicate cutting time and the javascript can probably mostly be reused.

good luck to anyone wanting to take this project up for now, I might come back to it some day too!
