New frameworks I am playing with
Posted on 06/10 at 12:17 PM
At work, I’m shifting gears and readying to write v2.0 of our web software. Where in the past I have always worked alone, we are now hiring a part time developer to take up some of the slack.
This was incentive for me to adopt new open source frameworks to build on this time around, intsead of coding everything from scratch as I usually do. I’m quite happy with the software we chose. After having spent some time with each package, I can’t recommend them enough. Here’s a list of what we ended up with.
CodeIgniter - web application framework,
JQuery - write less, do more with javascript,
Interface Elements - a jquery gui library,
Smarty - a smart templating engine,
Flyspray - the bug killer ... er tracker,
and of course PHP and MySQL

Often times I will release code for free or go that extra distance to help others online. If my skills were useful to you, please consider a small donation. Thank you very much.
