The Cocoa Office Suite

[fryke]

I've assembled a website on http://mac.fryke.com/cocoaoffice for my little pet project, which is to put together a few very, very good Cocoa applications that could make a wonderful office suite. Give the thought a spin and tell me here what you think of it.

Yep, I basically assembled this set myself a while ago and love it (although Mesa seems a bit messed up)--the one problem is that Okito Composer is still rather buggy... hopefully that can/will be fixed. But yeah, this is definitely a good idea. I would say that the "transparent, seamless UI" element that ties all these programs together is the killer part of the deal! All these programs look and behave in a similar way. Now, if only OmniGroup would make their own version of Okito Composer... OmniWrite, anyone?

The suggestion of an OmniWriter application has been made several times on the OmniWeb mailing list - so far no-one from Omni has answered. Guess they either don't want to develop yet another time-intensive application or they *are* developing one. Both could be true.

I think Okito Composer does a good job so far. Yes, there are still bugs, but they *will* be fixed (I'm sure).
