I am
pieter hoekstra from The Netherlands and this site is still the home of
Pieter's Simple Framework v0.0.4 v0.0.5.
PSF is an implementation of XJConf, a bit of the Zend Framework and the Yahoo User Interface (at v0.0.5). It is structured with XML defined resources and data,
mySQL storage and PHP5 classes. You can directly start working on the design making templates while someone else is doing the coding of the modules.
Still you can do all the communication with little emails going around. From scratch PSF gives you some modules and functions that perform basic tasks
like:
- providing a modulair and stackable design
- template management
- form rendering and handling from XML
- inclusion of Javascripts and JSON objects from within PHP
Code is neatly separated from the design without a very intricate templatesystem. Contributors to the website can use
BBCode.
A goal was, and still is, to keep it simple and clear.
You can download a copy from
subversion or the last milestone, which is 0.4 at the moment,
as a ZIP-file. Something of a WIKI lives at
code.google.com
One major version 5 issue was to embrace a database and render corresponding controls in html.
Currently most of the standard HTML-controls are included and they can be instantiated, configured and designed with an XML
declaration, but work has to be done yet to serve the full range of databaseoperations in comfortable XML.
