NEMADIY

I have been working on NEMADIY for more than half a year. This summer I work full-time for it. It is a fairly large project. There are 7-10 people working on it at one moment. I am mostly working on the front-end, the DIY module. Amit started it with Appfuse, which in turn uses whole bunch of tools: Spring MVC, struts-menu, sitemesh, prototype.... At the beginning, I am just helped Amit to modify things a bit. But over the time, I started to take the DIY as my responsibilty.

We added Spring webflow for a widzard-like process. Amit knows nothing about it. Another programmer Andrew, who has some experience with webflow, help me. Recently I start to look into Dojo, a javascript framework (prototype does not have widget system), to implement a datagrid for better looking.

In March, I spent a month to investigate GWT, we thought about to move to it completely. But I am completely new on it, and others are the same. We finally ditched the idea as we are not sure it is good for a big system as ours. We instead, used webflow to implement some parts, which also takes me about a month to learn and implement.


Well more stories about each later.
