The latest web development stack
Mon, 3 November, 2008
I've been using a new web development stack
- For web technologies:
- Django - A nice framework. After some work, I've learned how to leverage URL's and templating, without the cruft of models, and without the admin module.
- jQuery - dang, this is a time-saver. Just learn it.
- And for editing:
- Vim - Omni-complete is perfect for web
development - it closes my HTML tags and intelligently suggests CSS keys and
appropriate values. Also, I've learned how to use the
:mksessionto preserve an editing layout. - ies4linux under Wine to test IE6 concurrently with Firefox.
- dwm - I fought with Awesome 3 long enough to jump ship. dwm does everything I want, and nothing more.
