PHP lib
I created a PHP library for my Master's PILOT and had been debating on whether to release it to the public in a GPL license. I finally realized that there are many others PHP libraries out there with many more features and proven uses and so the chances of my library being used in any significant way is small. So why release it then? It might teach someone something and would increase the quality of the library with potential public eyes on it. I spent some time creating a script that automatically creates an tarball of the latests version from the repository and can be found at download.whedimer.com/snapshot/wlib_php. Stable releases will eventually come.
Criticism on the library is welcome so long as the language used is civil and specific towards a particular aspect (no vague or general criticisms please). Keep in mind I have little professional experience and so keep your expectations low.
Purpose
Welcome to the Whedimer blog. Expect to find posts recording my efforts in computer programming and documentation. While there are many development blogs out there the goal is not to compete with them. Nearly all of the good development and tech blogs out there are authored by people with a decent amount of professional experience. However with the case of this blog, the author is one with little professional experience. Some facts about the author:
- graduate and undergraduate degree in computer science
- two internships (one software engineering, one research) and one graduate research assistantship
- liberal arts education
- web development experience (graduate school work)
Expect addional posts convering various topics in the future.
