Starting a New Project

February16

Now that there are no major bugs left in Overlord, I have a bit more time to spend on other projects, like creating a map for Warcraft III and starting, or rather restarting, my RPG inventory project. The point of the project is to create a simple interface for keeping track of an inventory of items for a table-top RPG group, although I suppose it could be used for other things as well. I had a partially working version writtin in PHP and using a lot of AJAX stuff, but it wasn’t working great, so I stopped developing it. Now, I am planning to develop this new version with Ruby on Rails, mostly as an experiment to see how easy it is to develop with Rails instead of PHP.

I plan to post my progress at regular intervals and comment on the differences between developing with PHP and with Rails. Hopefully, someone will find it useful.
