Games and Bytes

Finally, the project I’m working on has been named! Games and Bytes is the name my friend decided to use for her website; bought the domain name just today and instantly set up a coming soon image (this isn’t the logo yet).

On the development side, I finished setting up FTP accounts, mail, and all other stuff this website will need. Tested out Kohana on DreamHost, and it works perfectly fine. I was able to install the framework perfectly without encountering any errors at all. By far, this is the framework with the easiest installation process I was able to install on DreamHost. Now that my development environment has been set up, now all I need is to finish the design phase to proceed on programming.

Kohana PHP Framework

I’m currently involved in a web development project; having both the roles of the designer as well as the programmer. My search for a lightweight framework I could use on this project has ended, and I’ve decided on using Kohana. Kohana was based on CodeIgniter (CI), which I have been able to play with already, so I’m quite familiar on how it works already.

By viewing the documentation of Kohana, I could say I love it! The way Kohana handles views is perfect, compared with CodeIgniter which I found to be quite limiting. I’m very excited on using this framework on this project, may this be another good learning experience for me. I’ll be posting the progress of this project on every milestone I reach.
