I've got a list of cool things I'd like to have time to write so I could
plug them into webapps:
- Simple FX pricing system that streams rates for several currency pairs
to the user and gives them the opportunity to place a spot trade for any
of the pairs. A priority here would be low delivery time between
aquiring the rate and delivering it to the user, and at the other end
taking the user's purchase request at the rate they hit. There'd also be
an opportunity to see trade history for the team. Opportunity to use
Swing or SWT but the interface wouldn't be that complex.
- Simple, hardy XML document editor. There is a predefined list of
styles, and each block of text can have one and only one style. It would
be useful to have this so as to plug it into webapps where there is a
publishing emphasis. Would require dev of simple widgets, this may be
too complex. Someone with experience developing widgets could show off.
- A tree browser, styled as a whiteboard. At any time there's a node in
focus, and then that's surrounded by child nodes. Clicking on a child
puts it in focus. The rich-client version of this could be far cooler
than a non-ajax web version because you could do zooming and pre-caching
and stuff, and it would be far easier to create an elegant layout mechanism.
- Simple tune player. Idea came when I was trying to describe a tune to
a friend over irc and had no means of expression. App has multiple
'lines' of midi data and actually plays it on the client. User can edit
each line in a text field using a simple system much like the that used
for ringtones on mobile phones. Small amount of Swing/SWT required.
Audio aspect might be complex - I'm not sure.
I haven't kept up with the list a lot recently - hope these examples are
in-spirit.
