Hi Chris:
I think you are spot on. Once you understand the basics, it is
relatively easy to develop data driven web applications with the OFBiz
framework. I've been doing just that for several years now. All that
"nasty" database stuff is taken care of - leaving me free to develop
real world solutions in short order.
What is much more difficult is to figure out how to use the existing
applications to solve real world problems. I'm still struggling with that.
Regards,
Ruth

Hi Marc,
This is one of the reasons I have been pushing for and independent
ofbiz framework. It's is relatively quick to learn how to develop
standalone apps in ofbiz. I believe with ofbiz, you can develop small
applications as quickly as you can in MS Access - with a lot more
benefits when using ofbiz (multiuser, web enabled, extendable, etc).
However, in my opinion, it takes years of experience to be able to use
the existing apps (partymgmt, ordermgmt, etc).
Cheers,
Chris

Is it possible for one person to have a deep understanding

vast. I have found that the only way to tackle the
problem is to break in into chucks: the framework, party
management, work effort... At the rate I'm going I
will have figured it all out in 5 years time.
It took me about 6 months to wrap my head around OFBiz. I have been
using it for 6 years and there are things that I'm still learning
about it.
