The Platform

Journler was created exclusively for Macintosh in the Objective-C programming language using Apple's Xcode development environment. Journler 2.5 is MacOS 10.4 Tiger only, requiring QuickTime 7 and making extensive use of Spotlight.

Open Source

Journler takes advantage of open source software to accomplish its more specialized tasks. Phil also hopes to make available a number of Journler's otherwise independent features. He just needs to get around to it. Many thanks the following developers for making their work publicly available:

About the Developer

Journler was conceived and created by Philip Dow. Phil currently lives in Austria, where he works exclusively on Journler and related projects. The previous two years he was an English teaching assistant in the Austrian school system. Phil's interests include mountains, music, philosophy, religion, literature, language, and strangely enough computer science. Phil may be reached at phil@journler.com. Bug reports, suggestions, and a short word are all appreciated.
