We seek to transform the web from that of a time waster into a time saver. Our approach is to bring the work done on software agents out of academia and into the public arena. Developers could create agents as easily as they can Drupal modules.

Assert Your Architecture! with this open source java library. Architecture Rules leverages an xml configuration file and optional programmatic configuration to assert your code’s architecture via unit tests or ant tasks. This test is able to assert that specific packages do not depend on others and is able to check for and report on cyclic dependencies among your project’s packages and classes. This project wraps a industry accepted JDepend to simplify the process of maintaining a solid software architecture.

symfony

admin — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 15:02:24 +0000

Symfony is a web application framework for PHP5 projects.

It aims to speed up the creation and maintenance of web applications, and to replace the repetitive coding tasks by power, control and pleasure.

Symfony is aimed at building robust applications in an enterprise context. This means that you have full control over the configuration: from the directory structure to the foreign libraries, almost everything can be customized. To match your enterprise’s development guidelines, symfony is bundled with additional tools helping you to test, debug and document your project.

Using symfony is so natural and easy for people used to PHP and the design patterns of Internet applications that the learning curve is reduced to less than a day. The clean design and code readability will keep your delays short. Developers can apply agile development principles (such as DRY, KISS or the XP philosophy) and focus on applicative logic without losing time to write endless XML configuration files.

Madeam

admin — Mon, 26 May 2008 02:17:09 +0000

Madeam is a PHP Model View Controller (MVC) Framework that allows for rapid application development (RAD) for the new web. It is originally inspired by David Heinemeier Hansson’s Ruby On Rails framework. It’s main focus is to give developers the creative freedom and tools to realize their dream applications without any frustration.

The name Madeam comes from a hack of the sentence “Made after midnight” or “Made AM”. It represents the long hours spent by every programmer working on a project in the middle of the night. Programmers are nocturnal and the name is to honor that culture.

SQLite

admin — Fri, 09 May 2008 00:50:55 +0000

SQLite is a in-process library that implements a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, transactional SQL database engine. The code for SQLite is in the public domain and is thus free for use for any purpose, commercial or private. SQLite is currently found in more applications than we can count, including several high-profile projects.

SQLite is an embedded SQL database engine. Unlike most other SQL databases, SQLite does not have a separate server process. SQLite reads and writes directly to ordinary disk files. A complete SQL database with multiple tables, indices, triggers, and views, is contained in a single disk file. The database file format is cross-platform - you can freely copy a database between 32-bit and 64-bit systems or between big-endian and little-endian architectures. These features make SQLite a popular choice as an Application File Format. Think of SQLite not as a replacement for Oracle but as a replacement for fopen()
