Nice but...

Looks nice, but is there any chance to get *decent* documentation/tutorials for a project that reads "Production/Stable" at sourceforge's trove?

User Documentation

Posted by: Kent Boogaart on April 26, 2006 in response to Message #207163
Thanks for the post James.

User documentation is admittedly lacking at the moment. What's that open source mantra again? Release early, release often :)

I still consider the framework production/stable because it is being used in several production applications. And I think you'll find the API doc is very comprehensive.

Having said that, I'll try and (pre)release an introduction and quick-start guide over the weekend.

Thanks!

I was starting to think that TSS.net was dead! It's good to see new open source initiatives in the .net world.

Right now I am evaluating MVC frameworks for a project in asp.net I am about to start and, as you now, there are not many options out there besides Maverick.net (is anyone actually using it?), Monorails (nice but, hmmmff...) and some other less known frameworks.

I particularily like the MVC for WinForms components, something definetely needed for serious development projects.

The API Docs are very comprehensive, that's true, and some example code is writen in there but what I have in mind is a concise "do-it yourself" guide and perhaps two or three example applications to get started quickly. Some explanation over the architecture would be good too. I think that one of the most important aspects of open source projects is the quality of the documentation, just take a look at the miriad of Java MVC frameworks out there, hundreds of them! but only the ones with good docs are actually being used for real development.

Sorry for complaining too much, hehe, but hey, it's better to have feedback right? Besides that, great work Kent! We'll keep an eye on Ingenious MVC.

Agreed

No problem Manolo. I definitely appreciate the feedback (and was kind of expecting there to be questions about user doc).

My introduction will include an architectural overview. The quick-start will get you up and running with either winforms or ASP.NET.

As for a full sample app, that will have to wait until a little later because I am pressed for time. I am currently setting up a sister site (http://www.ingeniousapps.com) where Ingenious MVC documentation will be hosted. Once that's up I will be able to provide sample apps.

Also, I have a java background and completely agree with your synopsis of open source java projects. Even the best framework is useless if no one knows how to use it.

Thanks again,
Kent
