Crux Hello World Video Lesson
This pots is for those who didn't try Crux yet. It's a very detailed "Hello World" video lesson, which shows how you can use the QuickStart tool to generate you first project.

Sit back and enjoy it! Welcome to Crux!
Crux 4.0.0 Release Candidate 01 Available
The first release candidate for Crux 4 is now available! Get it now here!
The great benefit of this version is performance. Crux no longer interprets metadada at runtime. Some of the screen building tasks that were made at runtime are now done at compile time.
The result is an amazing enhancement of 300% in speed for rendering the screen.
Another performance improvement is that Crux 4 only renders what is needed. Widgets that are not visible when the screen is rendered for the first time will be rendered lazily, only when and if necessary
