    Does the jo framework support any ui widgets?

    I really like the jquery ui widgets:

    Yes, http://joapp.com/ and can be themed purely via CSS and comes with some great default ones.

    @Austin yes, it does. Version 0.3.0 is due out next week with some more form-type widgets and a kitchen sink sample to play with. I’m also working on another screencast to walk through making an app with Jo. Stay tuned to the website or follow @balmer or @JoAppNews for updates.
