Very interesting web framework.

Alright. I am back from a VERY long pause and I hope I can blog more often from now on. Let start with something very interesting.

Lift web framework is on top of my to-do lists. I definitely give it a try and I will post my finding here. Stay tuned. But wait! Do  I need to learn another programming language?

lift is yet another web development framework. lift runs inside a Java web container and uses the Scala programming language for coding. lift stresses security, developer productivity, ease of deployment, ease of maintainability, performance, and compatibility with existing systems.

Happy Holidays!!!

I know why he hates framework!!!

Today I read a post at Joel On Software and this is somewhat related to my last posting even though his idea is not exactly about web frameworks. I do agree with him that same phenomenon happens to the web frameworks as well.

Read his blog. It’s funny and light shining about today frameworks.

Web frameworks crisis

Recently, I spotted many web development frameworks on the blogs or from search engine. There is a war going on out there. I believe that, with many choices that frameworks, to choose the right framework for your web application is not a very easy tasks. Developers have to spend a great amount of time to explore the available choices. I would like to explore on this issue to investigate the spectrum of web frameworks and the framework to choose the right choice. If you would like to share experiences, that would rock.
