Today it happened to be to find out about WideStudio IDE primarily developed in Japan.  It’s an open source GUI based application development environment providing support for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris. It has been developed in C++. The following features really attract the cross platform developers.

  • Multi platform application development. For example, if the application is developed in Windows, can also run in Linux
  • Multi Encoding support for Unicode (UTF8), EUCJP and SJIS. It handles encoding independently of the encoding of the underlying platform.
  • Freely available for personal and business use.  No need to publish the source
  • Application development is possible for Desktop, large server and even for embedded devices
  • Supports C, C++, Java, Perl, Ruby, Python, OCaml
  • Multi Widget Toolkit support

There are many good open source IDEs are available for applicatin development presently.  God bless open source.
