EEInsider

January 17th, 2009

If you use Expres­sio­nEngine as much as we do, it’s impor­tant to have as many resources avail­able at your dis­posal as pos­si­ble. So, when Ryan Irean of Airbag fame announced the launch of EEIn­sider, I was very excited to see what it was all about.

EE Insider is a great series of arti­cles, tuto­ri­als, and links to Expres­sio­nEngine related good­ness. If you’re a sea­soned EE vet­eran or just start­ing to learn, I highly rec­om­mend check­ing the site out. Ryan also has a fan­tas­tic series of screen­casts avail­able at eescreen​casts.com. He walks you through the entire process of imple­ment­ing Expres­sio­nEngine on your site, from start to finish. For only $5 an episode, it’s prob­a­bly the best way to learn out there.

What We Have Been Up To

July 1st, 2008

It’s been a little while since we’ve updated the site, but no time like the present to bring every­one up to date on the hap­pen­ings at Square­One HQ!

We’ve taken on a few projects lately that have focused more on web­site devel­op­ment and less on the design aspect of things. One actu­ally has required Ruby on Rails, and it has been a blast learn­ing a lot more about the ins and outs of this pow­er­ful but simple devel­op­ment plat­form. If you’ve never heard of Ruby on Rails, it’s basi­cally a frame­work that allows devel­op­ers to focus on the impor­tant aspects of a web­site and not on the super tech­ni­cal (or super tedious) issues like data­base con­fig­u­ra­tion, form cre­ation, and user admin­is­tra­tion. RoR allows you to quickly get a site together for the client to look at and use.

We’ve been work­ing on build­ing a reser­va­tion system for a local busi­ness to use inter­nally, and it should be done fairly soon.
