Streamline
Streamline allows you to create a website from a template or from scratch. Streamline streamlines the processs of web development by interpreting the website structure from a JSON definition. Streamline web pages are fully ajaxed, which means you never have to reload the web page. Link hashes are used to navigate through the web page without reloading the page so navigated pages are placed in the history of the browser and can be bookmarked and the back button navigates to the last page. Animations can be applied when switching between pages.
The JSON definition allows for complex functionality with relatively simple definitions. Streamline is constantly being developed further so functionality is continually added.
The Streamline support page is not yet completed but the JSON structure for intended functionality can be infered from template code.
An example of a Streamline JSON definition for the
Publications template can be found in the app folder in the defintion.js file. This definition can be instructive for creating your own definition from scratch and demonstrates some of the functionality Streamline has to offer. As can be seen from this example it takes very little coding to create a fully functional web page with a content management system. From this definition the accompanying PHP code is about 500 lines of code. (not including Streamline's base classes).
