Docsinated
I'm quite ashamed. I work constantly on all my PHP codebases for myself and everyone that uses them... but... I rarely update my actual documentation. After multiple emails from frustrated developers letting me know my docs make no sense and are quite outdated, I went on an update spree. I've spent the last few months updating all my codebases to a final stable release so that I may cease development on all of them (I need to free up some time). During this process I closed any outstanding issues and bugs, tagged new versions and have been recently converting all my CakePHP scripts to use the latest 2.0 version. Alongside that, I took the time to update all the documentation and changelogs on this site; the docs will always reference the latest version and any old docs have been removed.
I've always had a place in my heart for my stand-alone PHP scripts as they are very simplistic implementations of what I needed back in the day. It's quite heartening to get emails from new developers letting me know these scripts have taught them. Here's the current list:
As for my CakePHP codebases, I will constantly keep those updated if any bugs come up, but will not be adding any new features for the most part. Since CakePHP 2 was released, I had to spend some time updated all my projects. I created new branches for the old 1.3 codebase and turned the master branch into the new 2.0 repository. By doing this, it allows me to keep both CakePHP versions up to date in parallel. It also allowed me to tag new major versions for all my projects. Below are my current projects (with possibly more to come):
I hope all of you using my documentation find it useful. If you ever find something incorrect or not easily explained, be sure to shoot me an email and I will tackle it as soon as possible! Thanks for using my code :]
