WebOS announces more source code and Development Management Modes

The WebOS team of HP has announced that more Open webOS source code will be released to the development community in the next few months. Today, the Team released the UI widgets of Enyo 2, the JavaScript kernel of the platform, and a new browser named Isis.

Isis provides stronger support for plug-ins and Flash. It is implemented through QtWebKit, which was initially an open-source engine by Nokia. WebOS's CTO Sam Greenblatt claims that Isis is the "ultimate response" to the challenge of benchmarking programs, which will be an important milestone for the success of modern mobile browsers.

On the Open-source management mode, the HP team detailed the Open WebOS management mode. Of course, only people inside the team have the right to mention the code to the Branch. However, it is said that there is also an "elite system" to add personal submitted code based on the level of people in the development community.

According to the road map released by the WebOS team at HP, Open webOS 1.0 will be officially released in March. This will be a stable and complete system that supports the current WebOS device and can run on all new OEM devices or tinkerers. At the same time, it will be a strict project for developers and contributors.
