Hello there,

on my way on searching the best alternative to Adobe Flex or JavaFx I just found ZK. It seems to be pretty cool, but I'm not able to install it. I followed the Instruction, installed everything but I can't open a ZK Perspective on Eclipse Ganymede. Then I read about that "WPT", but theres no description what "WPT" is. I tryed to install it via the update manager on "help/software updates/available..." but theres no wpt.

Now, I'm frustrated. I was so happy about finding an alternative to that flex- and javafx-i-have-to-learn-a-couple-of-languages-to-use-it-stuff!

Can anyone explain (maybe as you would to a child) how to install that ZK studio?

Thx

Thanx for helping that fast. Until now, I was able to install ZK Studio correctly, open the ZK perspective and open a new zul-file. So far so good. but the next problem is to install the runtime environment for testing my apps.

Do you mean to run zk on a standalone servlet container, such as tomcat, or Websphere?
Here're some of our wiki documents you should be interested :)
