Tk in Javascript is a work in progress by [apw], which started about May 2011 and is part of the [incr Tcl in Javascript] project.

It is intended to be one possible frontend/client part of [ATWF] and [Reporting Tools with Tcl]. 

It tries to implement [Tk] [widget]s using javascript and [DOM] trees.

That includes a mapping of for example [button]/[label]/[entry] [widget]s to something which can be done with [HTML] parts in creating [DOM] trees and adding properties and attributes to the [DOM] nodes, that includes mapping of [Tk] option model to javascript style model and properties of [DOM] nodes.

Second goal is to map [Tk] event handling and bind functionality to the javascript event model and the javascript event listeners/handlers. There are also more complex widgets in work like [Tree], [Tktable], [panedwindow], [combobox] etc.

The selection on which widgets are implemented first is driven by: what is needed for a reporting environment, that includes the decision on which options are implemented first.
