Sencha recently released some nice enhancements to Sencha Fiddle, a browser-based sandbox for experimenting with the Ext JS and Sencha Touch frameworks (see my previous post about the features). The best way to learn about the new features is to experience them for yourself, but here’s a quick run-down of some of the more interesting changes:

A few of the more show-stopping bugs have been fixed, including:

• You can now search for your own fiddles by author (e.g., author:existdissolve)
• Creating “data” tabs now successfully save as a part of the fiddle
• Some “un-indexed” fiddles are now back into the search results

If this is your first time visiting Sencha Fiddle in a while, you’ll notice that it’s gotten a significant face-lift. Gone is the bluey-blueness of the Neptune theme, and in its place is the new-ish “Charcoal” theme. It’s still distinctively “Neptune” in the aesthetic, but the contrast of the lime and charcoal are much more tolerable, IMO, than the unrelenting blue of stock Neptune 🙂

Originally, Sencha Fiddle beta offered sharing for Twitter and Facebook. This has now been expanded to include Google+. Hooray!

Additionally, you can now also grab an embed snipped for using on websites (see example More >
