Re: The future of gitweb - part 2: JavaScript

Hi,

My suggestion is going to be tremendously unpopular, but still: if I
were to develop my own gitweb, I'd use Wt ( http://webtoolkit.eu ) +
libgit2. In fact, there is a very basic gitweb-like example bundled
with Wt sources, it's available online at
http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/examples/git

All those detect if this feature is available or not, fallback to
plain HTML (no Javascript, no AJAX), use HTML5, or SVG, or... where
available are already solved (and are totally automatical) in Wt. It's
C++ with Boost and Qt-like API, not plain C, Perl or bash scripting,
though.
