July 24, 2009 at cogear release 1.0
Good day, % username% .
In early summer, the announcement of the cogear site management system was published .
In the announcement, it was promised to launch the engine in open access for two weeks. On June 16, the official website was launched. Since the system was developed by one person and this was the first experience of this kind of activity, beta testing in a closed circle was not provided.
It is always nice to learn from your mistakes - the engine went through a beta testing stage in the circle of people who are interested and visiting the site.
The main bugs were fixed in a short time, after which work began on changing the key components of the engine (core, template engine, etc.). As practice has shown, a lot of bugs creep out on the server, which are difficult to notice when working on the local machine. Overcoming difficulties, he was able to go further than he planned, based on the experience gained.
Over the past month, all tasks were completed:
The current version 1.0 , which was released today, should be considered stable.
In order not to repeat everything that has already been said , I will not go into details (there is documentation for this ). Screenshots will tell you everything. I invite everyone to visit the official website of the cogear site management system .
