(thank goodness for that extra day, eh?) is the promised release this month for the user interface widgets. The release, as noted on the EnyoJS blog also brings the Enyo framework to beta 2 status, which comes with fuller cross platform support for "a wide range of desktop and mobile browsers, from IE 8 to iOS 5."

The UI widgets set takes after the already-established look of webOS 3.0, maintaining the three-dimensional rounded buttons and text fields aesthetic. The only easily discerned difference is in the slider grab handles, which have morphed from virtual slots to more subtle virtual grooves. The new/old look has been dubbed Onyx by the Enyo team - while it may look practically the same, the widgets were built from the ground-up for Enyo 2. This is just the initial release for Onyx, with additional updates to come in the months ahead. If you're wanting to try it out while you're waiting for developers to deploy Enyo 2.0-based apps, they've put together an that shows how it all looks in your browser (and that's using Enyo 2.0 code to boot).

The beta 2 release for Enyo 2 also includes a new layout library meant to help developers build flexible layouts to fit the available space of  the screen. Considering that Enyo 2.0 is meant to be deployed across multiple platforms and the web, flexibility will be a key component. With new FittableColumns and FittableRows controls, developers will be able to choose a section of their app to expand and contract to fill available space while the rest maintain their sizing. This is all done with minimal JavaScript and CSS styling limitations for developers - it's highly flexible while also seriously lightweight on the processing front.

Apart from layout and UI widgets, the Enyo 2 beta 2 release also includes improved event handling, unstyled base UI controls, and updates to improve performance for Enyo apps on and . The right now - go get it, developers!

      A fully functional channel sort and editor.
      By T Bass
      The current channel management and tuning is not very good. A good channel list editor with alphabetical sort and channel deletion and not skipping (memory conservation and speed) would be great for models with Satellite tuning. Tuning multiple satellites results in THOUSANDS of channels most of which are useless. Also. there is no way to avoid duplicate channels or easily root them out. From time to time channels would change frequency and even manual transponder tuning would result in excess and duplicate channels.

      The Enyo team have just . What we know is that with LG’s TV arm as their main customer, the focus remains on TV sized apps. Though increased support for mobile is planned, it is currently limited. Also, the framework will have a new name when publicly released.
      This next generation of Enyo will be of interest to those currently building apps with the platform, but may also attract developers already experienced with ReactJS.
      For those engaging with this testing phase, we’d be interested in any comments. The webOS Ports team will no doubt also be interested in any too. You can comment at .
