Dashcode Beta Available for Download

Apple is offering a beta version
of Dashcode, the widget development
environment, to Apple developers. Dashcode
offers visual editing and code views to develop
your widget. I haven't designed a widget yet,
but according to the text online the widgets
will be designed for Leopard or Mac OS 10.5.
Dashcode has a simple wizard allowing you to
choose which type of widget you want to create.
You can choose from 8 different templates:
Custom; Clock; RSS; Podcast; Photocast; Quartz
Composer; Daily Feed and Guage. The program
really looks promising and I just may make my
first widget with this. The beta will stop
working July 15th.
Here is a great page showing off Dashboard with a small example.
