Major Project

After the success of Techfest's web application , Mr. Mukesh Mathur(Assos. Registrar) and Mr. Ankit Bhandari assigned our team to the task of creating web application for college( www.jietjodhpur.com ). That's definitely a great opportunity for our team.

We first decided to create it in RubyOnRails ; then due to unavailability of resources we move towards PHP-Cake.

PHP-Cake is web based frame-work inspired from ROR. But it lacks documentation & tutorials to learn from. Lets see if we are able to create it successfully .(& we will definitely hit that!!).

In my journey to learn php-cake I will write tutorials, so that newbies can learn it with ease and this would definitely going to be fun for me....

Main Module includes:
1) CMS system for general information and publicity.
2)Community web app for Alumni.
3)Blogs for College students

others include:
1) attendence module.
2) profile for students.

Till the time of writing we have completed our first module and working for Alumni module. Mean while we will also try to learn JOOMLA and shift our content management to it.

Lets see how it goes , as time-line is a real hurdle. Will keep posting as we progress.....
