Glimmer DSL for Opal Hello, Text!

Glimmer DSL for Opal [Pure Ruby Web GUI] 0.27.0 ships with the Hello, Text! sample (originally comes with Glimmer DSL for SWT [JRuby Desktop Development GUI Framework])

Note that Hello, Text! is relying on the new Shine syntax for intuitive data-binding with the use of <=> to denote bidirectional (two-way) data-binding of GUI attributes (left-side) to Ruby attributes (right-side). Glimmer is the only GUI framework that has the Shine syntax, which makes data-binding GUI code an order of magnitude simpler than the competition, thanks to Ruby and Opal.


Happy Glimmering!
