First Post
I have decided to start a blog
Why? Because Plone allows me to do so. But also, because:
- I have been reading a lot of lately and they have inspired me to write my own.
- I want to interact with other Plone developers and users.
- I want to try new technology.
Build Tools
To that end, this post is about my build tools. But first I'll note these current and likely better alternatives:
I used Buildout for the first time at the Baarn UI sprint 2007 and I've also used Chris McDonough's Buildit. There are probably even more to choose from, but for now I enjoy typing:
$ newzope test-site ProductA ProductB ProductC
And having a working instance a few seconds later with Product{A,B,C} installed.
Awesome!
