Gears API Blog: Appcelerator gives you Gears functionality out of the box

Gears API Blog: Appcelerator gives you Gears functionality out of the box: "First, for those that haven't heard of Appcelerator, it is an open source 'RIA' development toolkit that focuses on rich clients talking to services on the backend. You can think of it somewhat as a Flex-like framework built with Open Web technology.

We are seeing an interesting trend. At first, frameworks would wrap Gears semantics in something that makes sense for their audience of developers, which is great.

Appcelerator though does something a little different. It uses Gears under the hood to make your existing Appcelerator based application a better user experience."
