Requirements & resolutions (Concept)


Resolutions

 

(Following 'convention over configuration' and 'keep it stupid, simple')

 

For end-user:

 

  1. UI localized per user
  2. really easy media manipulation
  3. full WYSIWIG

 

For website:

 

  1. structure splits into 'sections', each section can be configured and used differenly.
  2. backend shares sames structure with frontend (user is not lost in the administration)
  3. 3 flavors of content localization to solve different scenarios

 

For graphical designer:

 

  1. Liquid template markup
  2. each site is built from scratch
  3. but following 'DRY'
  4. theming

 

And the rest:

 

  1. extensibility: additional drops, widgets and its a rails plugin
  2. end-user features: versioning, changes-commiting, auto-backup
  3. embeded: newsletter, simple forum ...

 

 

 


freestyle editing for extra creative

 

Requirements

 

We have end-user that:

 

  1. Wants to be original.
  2. Dont speak English.
  3. Works a lot with photos / other media.
  4. Wants everything editable.
  5. Wants SEO optimalization.

 

So we have a website:

 

  1. That has its own structure.
  2. Is multilingual.
  3. And we have graphical design that:
  4. Differs from standard. No limitations given.
  5. Designer is not a programmer.

 

And we are lazy, that means:

 

  1. Want to make it quickly.
  2. We let the designer to edit the source code.
  3. All websites are integrated into one maintainable rails app.
