    Hi,

    Is it possible to use in runtime sproutcore without ruby?
    Can javascript from sproutcore run without starting any server?

    SproutCore is server agnostic since it supports RESTful backends that receive and accept JSON data. The package includes developer tools written in Ruby.

    Hi,

    I know that SproutCore is loose coupled from the backend server. However, when I did the "Tutorial" of SproutCore it requires to start a ruby server, then I can access the localhost and see how SproutCore looks like. Can I replace this ruby server with other server?

    Regards,
    Steve
