Goal

This is a break down of the Xobni extension available for Outlook. Each screenshot below comes from the Xobni Demo, the code besides each screenshot is pseudo-code for possibly generating the screenshot.


The intention of this set of screenshots and pseudo-code blocks is to pseudo-test the API design of the STEEL interface libraries. Xobni was chosen for this example because it is an interesting extension to Outlook and I believe we would like to see it or others like it attempted inside Thunderbird's Extension system.
