And a new framework is born!
Today marks the day I made my first commit to the new Cogsworth repository on Google Code. That's right, you can now, finally, check out Cogsworth and toy with it. It's still in its early, early Alpha stages, but this allows you all to test it as I go as well as make all sorts of requests and suggestions.
This is the first time I've publicly released my code in a very long time, so please, while I completely accept constructive criticism, be gentle. My over-inflated ego can only handle so much abuse.
There is also a Google Group set up for every one.
Since this is only the initial commit, there is a TON of incomplete documentation. It's all on my todo list, but as soon as I get the chance I'll be putting in a shit-ton of time into documentation, tutorials and everything else you might need to get started.
Unfortunately, I don't have the time right now to make a more detailed announcement, but that's gonna have to wait until later on this weekend. Until then, here's Cogsworth's description:
Cogsworth is a lightening fast open source framework with all the tools you need to rapidly create exceptionally awesome web applications. It was written with the belief that you shouldn't have to start from scratch every time you create a new project. Cogsworth not only does all the grunt work for you, but provides a system with security, stability and an unprecedented amount of flexibility out of > the box.
Booyah! We just made PHP fun again. Now go check it out and get to making some killer stuff!
Let the games begin!
Hells yea, man. :)
I've been looking forward to this. Playing now.
