Hi,
sorry I've been too busy lately to participate in anything I've promised over time. It's not that I don't want to do it any more, just time... well, you know.
Reading this thread, something clicked as I've been working on a simple website using Cocoon with simple XML files as "backend". So no high-end, sophisticated connecting-legacy-to-homegrown-software-to-Cocoon stuff, but simply taking advantage of things already available in Cocoon.
I could try and write down the process I've gone through and using that as a base for a tutorial for "MyFirstCocoonWebApp". I know I sometimes work backwards (i.e. develop first, think later ;-)), so things might be out of (efficient) order.
The website I'm referring to is currently online at: http://137.120.8.30
It's a multi-lingual (NL + EN) site with some Cforms for registration and a connection to an eXist database for some searching.
My idea about this tutorial is building a similar website e.g. "MyPersonalSite" containing biography and CV, "MySmallBusinessSite" (who are we, what do we do, portfolio, contact form).
WDYT?
Sounds great. At some point, we've got to come up with a list of the sort of tutorials and walk-throughs we want, so that we can have comprehensive coverage. In the meantime, I'd say just go ahead and write it!
Regards, Upayavira
