JavaScript as Lingua Franca for the … Desktop!

Ars technica is writing about a project called Seed, which allows to write Gnome desktop apps with JavaScript.

Quote from the website:

Seed is a library and interpreter, dynamically bridging (through GObjectIntrospection) the WebKit JavaScriptCore engine, with the GObject type system. In a more concrete sense, Seed enables you to immediately write applications around a significant portion of the GNOME platform, and easily embed JavaScript as a scripting-language in your GObject library.

Go JavaScript, go! :)
