These guys were pretty good when I used them: https://www.cranksoftware.com/storyboard.



Crank doesn't scale. The project is a binary file. You can't have multiple people developing screens. Its fine for small projects, anything big and it falls apart.


I used to look down on Crank like it was the next coming of Flash Lite, but after finishing a project in QML and realizing most of the heavy lifting was connecting the Javascript components to business logic C++ code running underneath through their clunky interface methods... it's pretty much the same thing.

And I bet Crank will actually run on a Cortex-M3.
