Hello,
This is my first post here! I`m a computer engineering with almost no formation in web Development. What I do know, is software engineering/architecture, Java and C/C++. I also have had some foundation in XHTML/CSS. So, this said, a friend came to me asking to develop a Website similar to eBay/Amazon/etc., I know it`s a huge project, so i don’t want to develop it with SQL, PHP, HTML. I want to use some Modern technology... I`ve read about a few of them: MVC -> facilitates the development of website by handling all those "complicated" language (SQL, PHP, HTML) and it`s connection automatically by the use of some language: - Java -> JSF - Ruby -> RubyOnRails - Python -> Django CMS -> facilitates the development of website by templates; in other words, it has many templates of many kinds of websites and those templates can be customized. - drupal - joomla The project has six months to be developed, at least a first working prototype. In addition, there is going to be two or three programmers doing it in their free time. I do know some of the strengths and weakness of each MVC/CMS.... the CMS is faster to develop, but it`s less customizable... From what I`ve heard of my friends project, it`s not a common website, it`ll provide a lot more than eBay/etc. So I`m afraid of using CMS. Most of all, the project should be modular; in other words, it must be possible to add new tools to the website after its completion. If anyone has something to add, suggest or ask, please feel free.
