From Casastristes

The server side mostly must handle AJAX petitions between the database and the front end. We should also figure out the DB structure till the beginning of the workshop.

Server technology

We are evaluating the following server technologies for use on server side of our project:

Ruby on rails

New interesting approach to programming database driven websites. Because of the lack of experience from the project authors we would depend on competent collaborators, if not it could be to short to get experts on this framework.

Start here:

• rubyonrails.org
• ruby on rails video tutorial
• Ruby on Rails programming tutorials

PHP

I think the best option for us. PHP documentation

List of Frameworks:

• Symfony is a framework for php
• Cake php framework
• Smarty php templates framework
• Tutorial for installing and first steps with Smarty

Djanjo (Phyton)

I read the book of it (http://www.djangobook.com/en)

Java

DB structure

We should start thinking about the records we need for empty houses:

General:

• usuario
• fecha y hora

Dirección de la casa:

• Calle
• número de la calle
• ciudad
• CP
• provincia
• páis?

Estado de la casa:

• vacia desde fecha
• estado de habitabilidad
• fotos
• comentarios
