Flickr Find: Screenshots of Dashcode?

TUAW reader Glenn has sent us a link to these pictures that purport to be Apple's Dashcode. What's Dashcode? The rumored Widget development application that many say Apple is working on. If these screenshots are legit it would seem that Dashcode is almost ready for prime time.

I tried to install the Dashcode you guys linked to but when I launch it, it doesn't even enter the dock and start bouncing around. Is it tied to the new MBPros? I am using a PB 1.5ghz.

it's true - I'm using it right now. a little clunky, but I'l slowly figuring out how to do things in the interface. quite cool.

How can it be "rumored...under development...almost ready for primetime" if it has been released on the installer disks? That method of issue seems to make a quite blatant and straightforth way of releasing a dev tool.

I'm using it on a PPC Mini - I suggest you try downloading a new copy, from the link that you didn't use the first time

Working fine on a Dual G5 PowerMac.
Nice and easy to use.

So easy to use it took me less time to create a Blog widget from the template than it did for the comment to reach my e-mail in box that I sent above.

Finally! This is a great replacement for HyperCard.
This is perfect for teaching the basics of programing and the skills that are learned will carry over as they move up to XCode.
I hope many schools adopt this for teaching introductory programming.

I've been using this for an hour or so on my iBook G4 (I know, so 12 months ago) 1Ghz... installed like it should, ran well. Only a crash or two when I tried some pretty advanced options all at once. Really nice, made a lot more sense than any of the other "Developer Tools". I've even made my first widget using the Blogs template: http://www.flickr.com/photos/callumalden/153867312/
I think Apple will launch it with a dozen other template ideas, and more 'items' or pre-made drag-and-drop bits and bobs, its still a great 1.0.
And what a Leak! How did this get on a Gold Disk, could it be another case of Apple not wanting to release a near-ready app that someone in Cupertino held close to their heart, like the Grapher... I mean Steve liked Dashboard, it does have a great 'wow' effect in the showroom too (i've used it many a time for that), but i don't use it every day, the way Exposé or the dock is an integral part of my operating system. Maybe they were considering moving away from it, and the Dashboard team got to work? I dunno - just pondering.

Great app. Been creating widgets for sometime. This is more like automator.
