README

Welcome to Anvil

Anvil is a ruby framework that utilizes GUI toolkits to create GUI based applications. The instructions for getting started are below:

Installation

        $ sudo gem install anvil

Getting Started

Go to your project‘s directory (where ever that might be) and run the following command:

        $ anvil my_app

Replace my_app with the name of the application you are creating. This will generate the files necessary for creating an Anvil application. Change directories to the newly created anvil application and run:

        $ cd my_app
        $ anvil

Your fresh anvil application should be up and running!

Living on the edge

If you‘d like to pull down the latest updates from the repository, checkout the trunk using git or subversion:

        $ http://anvil.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/

cd into the anvilties directory and run

        $ rake install

Repeat the same steps for widget_wrapper.
