Going Public With New Site Code

Video download link | md5sum 61c40e9bbcb4e65c8dd5d49579988b7a Last Night We Published New CMS Code Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0



Summary: Content management systems that support several protocols (not just the World Wide Web or HTML) are something more people ought to look into; in our case, we've made our own and the code is tentatively public

AT the start of July we said we'd adopt and gradually move to static pages, essentially by developing our own CMS for our specific needs. Writing one's own CMS isn't a massive coding job if things are kept simple (narrow set of features) and the investment pays off if the code will be used for decades (deployed across several sites). This CMS isn't a Web CMS; it's not limited to the Web, it supports several protocols.



"...investment pays off if the code will be used for decades (deployed across several sites)."What was recently deployed in Tux Machines (it went live a week ago) will later be deployed here, albeit gradually.

At the moment there's not much to see as we have only this small prototype of commit history (akin to a proof of concept that will improve over time) and full code listing along with the licence. Suffice to say, the code is not yet "production" quality, but at least it is developed in the open now (updated every hour). The system is very "custom-made" (tailored to our unique needs and workflow), but if it gets generalised, it'll likely need a project name.
