So how does this affect you?
We think that it's very important for others to be able to leverage the technologies we have developed in Cocktails. First, we are working with others to evolve open standards whenever possible, leveraging the lessons we have learned creating Livestand for connected devices, and on unreliable network conditions.
We will also make Mojito open source through YDN in the first quarter of 2012. We look forward to working the community to make Mojito one of the leading web frameworks going forward, so that more and more developers can create web applications that run seamlessly on the client- and the server-side. Later in 2012 we will be opening Yahoo! Manhattan for publishers to be able to run Mojito-based applications on Yahoo!'s Cloud.
Going forward, Mojito and Yahoo! Manhattan will allow you to develop ONE app and deploy it on several devices to lower cost, increase agility and keep a uniform design across platforms (web, mobile, tablet). With the power of Yahoo! Cocktails, you'll be able to build that app – deployable on several platforms –in the same time it currently takes to build each app individually.
