Yeah speculation based on information.

They posted an ad for a Web developer in Hero Lab circles. Not Realm Works circles. That tells a story IMO. One that I'm very interesting in reading.

We also know a Ui rebuild is under way.

It is advertised on all their forum pages, both HL and RW; as well as on their RW facebook page.

That tells a very different story, IMHO. :-)

While that is true now... it wasn't at the time of posting. FB post went up on the 10/03 on the Hero Lab page and didn't appear on the RW page until the 21/03.

The same happened with the forums.

now if one had followed the other on the same day it would mean nothing. But 11 days later? It's almost like they were only thinking about HL at the time of posting and RW was an afterthought.

I'm just guessing obviously...

No need to guess. It's in the first paragraph of the job description:

The only mention of their other products on that page is in the blurb about the company at the bottom.


ObTopic: If you want a portable way to run LWD's products, get a Windows laptop/tablet/convertible. I've liked my Android tablets as light media consumption devices but I much prefer a device that can run all of my software.

For Hero Lab I like being able to mix and match between touch and keyboard+touchpad/mouse while having the full application available. (The touchscreen doesn't go away just because my convertible is in laptop mode.)

Webapp isn't my favorite choice for further UI development, but it's popular these days. :(
