Happy Anniversary

PlumeriaSC turned 10 years old on May 2019. Here are some interesting facts below:
1) Minecraft was started around May 2009 too.
2) The first application ever made in PlumeriaSC 1 was a game named Stunt Kite. It was released in 2010 which most likely makes it the first 3D Stunt Kite game ever created for Mac.
3) Plumeria Smart Charts 1 was actually going to be named Plumeria Application Creator.
4) It took over three months to create a pong game in PlumeriaSC 1. In PlumeiraSC 3 it takes a little over a week (that includes fixing PlumeriaSC bugs along the way).
5) PlumeriaSC 1 was designed for development of iOS and Mac applications in the same project. Right before PlumeriaSC 1 was released Apple updated their developer tools with this same feature.
6) PlumeriaSC 2 was one of the first developer tools directly on the iPad. The irony is that Apple's iPad developer tool named Playgrounds was released the same month PlumeriaSC 3 finished development.
7) The name for the third generation of PlumeriaSC was named Plumeria Smart Creator. The name "Creator" is inspired by the Lego series with the same name.

So what about now? Well, Plumeria Smart Creator 4 is currently under development. If you have played GSJArena in our games section then you have already seen a sneak peak of what it can do. The coolest feature is that it will output JavaScript applications (hint: not just games) for offline and online use.
