For the new wildermuth.com, I have the following requirements:
- Keep ease of use to find my blog, rants and questions
- Add registration to eliminate the amount of spurious quesitons I have submitted to me.
- Allow registered users to personalize the site.
- Simplify searching for questions and rants into single point of search.
- Enhance maintenance pages to allow someone but me to maintain the site as needed.
- Keep all old URL's working even as I change the structure of the site.
- Eliminate my home-grown "MasterPages" solution and use the newly built one.
- Allow users to answer questions, submit code snippets, add book reviews, etc.
- More easily support more than one syndication model (RSS, Atom, etc.)
- Keep performance of site same or better than existing site.
- Improve data integrity by moving to a better backed-up data store.
- Include a "client" area to allow my clients to better use the site as a communications medium.
- Improve the "Book Owners" area to make it easier for owners of my book (or forthcoming books and articles) to get sample code and electronic copies of the books/articles.
I am sure there are more, but those are the core of the new requirements. Tune in tomorrow to start matching requirements with solutions...
Back in the day when ASP.NET shipped, I converted this site from the existing ASP based site. As an exercise to really bring in some new features I've wanted and to lose the ASP legacy (I actually still have a page or two that uses string concatenation to put together HTML Tables), I want to do a full re-write of the site.
I use a process where I begin with the requirements, then the data, then the code (no big surprises there). My goal is to blog through each stage of this process and hopefully help my readers learn a bit about an ASP.NET 1.x to ASP.NET 2.0 conversion.
Look for rants about this process starting as early as today!
Try it out when you get a chance. (Note: Posting to same topic more than once a minute is prohibited).
Anyone with a web enabled phone, I am trying to test how a calendar looks on phones but I only have so many. If you could visit this page (http://wildermuth.com/test) and click on the hyperlink on whether you can see the calendar or not, I'd really appreicate it!
