I have no idea what this is trying to prove. Without any dynamic behavior, it is really a very trivial thing to code the interface in a very short time. What's the point?
Somebody explain to me how this is even close to being worthy of the title "replica".
Things that are not done:
- the special scroll bars
- maximizing panels
- minimizing the panels to the top bar
- dropping down panels from the top bar
- searching?
- drag and drop anything, really
This demo is 99% CSS and images, and 1% javascript; pretty much all that is functional here are the buttons and panel resizing (in a different way than Wave actually does it). There are well-established jQuery plugins that would let you make buttons and resizable panels in far less than 100 lines of JavaScript.
