SilverStripe

Coming in October

Posted by Sam on 11 October 2006

In follow-up to Tim's post yesterday about the launch of our new site, I thought I'd post a quick note to let you know what we've got planned this month.

• Better Demo Site
  We've realised that our demo site could a better job of explaining how SilverStripe works.  Because it's a simple platform that's highly customisable, the demo site comes off a little underwhelming.  We're going to be releasing a better demo site to show this off more.
• Screen Casts
  On that note, we will also be putting together screen casts that take you through using and customising SilverStripe, so you can get a feel for what it's like to develop SilverStripe sites.
• Better Documentation
  We admit that our documentation wiki needs more work and we will be primarily adding tutorials for first-time SilverStripe developers.  We will also grow the reference documentation, but this will be more long-term.
• More Releases
  We're going to be putting out new beta releases quite regularly over the next month, in the lead up to our v2.0.0 release. So get those bug-reports in!
• Updated Tree Control
  Many of you will have signed up to our blog when we released our JavaScript Tree Control last year.  The much-promised Ajax release never came, I'm sorry - we got stuck into building our CMS! The Ajax tree has already been developed as part of this CMS, and we just need to re-package into a reusable package.  That will be happening this month.
