SproutCore 2: For Native-Caliber Web Apps
Sproutcore 2 no longer support the Abbot Buildtools which has been replaced by the new Node.js Build Tools.
SproutCore is a JS-MVC framework for building blazing-fast, native-caliber web applications. SproutCore's full-stack approach to single-page application development gives you the tools you need to build rich, powerful applications... which happen to run in the browser.

The easiest way to get started with SproutCore is to install the Ruby gem. You can find instructions here. Once you've got SproutCore installed, checkout the Getting Started tutorial.
