At th end of a PoC @ project.....

At the end of completing one small working prototype project for my new team @ work,it made me feel -"Are people merely obsessed with tools usage among Java community specifically in Web development?" though few of tools were handy during my development.


Since I moved to this avenue("Web development") with my own interest few months back after one year in Core Java("Desktop Application development") and prior 3 yrs experience in c++ .

In the tools usage even,choices are the most troublesome for the new comers like me.

to start with ..

->wireframe for my ui mockups-many are there .I used Balsamiq(free version only)

->build - ant or maven . I favored maven as I used in my previous project(seems to me the world too :) )

->data modeling using TigerStripe (database design for the application) .This guy is capable to generate data model java pojo's for us from mere uml sort of diagram specification. also,specifying relationship between entities too possible..

->orm/persistance -hibernate used in mine & there are other good enough candidates-JPA,etc.

I am skipping - "choosing IDE and database for application". here.

->web framework - struts,spring mvc,spring web flow .finally what we have end up is an hybrid one :)

->web container - traditional non-osgi based containers(tomcat) or osgi based one(spring dm server).

->to be Web 2.0 app, usage of rich javascript library to our front end ui code.
this is infinite I suppose .few I tried - jquery,yui & end up in dojo.

->notification framework in ur web 2.0 enabled web app - DWR or cometd

I was exhauted finally when I was asked to automate my unit-testing of my web application.
many java mocking frameworks are there it seems. one I got to know and to be done :( - using mockito.

Though learning and doing were interesting,somewhat for people like me migrating to web development from " Application development" .I wish to share the happening via this post.
Nothing sort of complaining this web development space or scare the new venturers here.

Little mindset change is required - thats what I felt. after all I have jotted down about Java web devleopment only . There are very much strongs parallels in python ,ruby ,erlang.

My words finally -"pursue this ,only on passion" .but not on craze or hot things happening in this space

I am very passionate about things happening in web world now .
I wish to do really a big thing in future :)

if not me atleast via my Frenz by inspiring them.

Again Finally ,this is not melancholic or demotivating note. :)

With Patience and steady conceptual learning by doing things in web,I believe one should be able to achieve feat in this space. After all,learning in ones own pace is never a curse though you miss few buses now :)

Our blogspot is indexed in GOOGLE search Result.

Etherpad b4 Google wave???

Guyz,

Shall we use(try atleast :) ) for our team for sometime this Etherpad(http://etherpad.com/) before adopting Google wave as our collab tool?

Though support gonna be for this a while only as "Google Wave" hve already acquired for their feature strengthening. But to pacify the active user base ,this gonna be open-sourced soon.So few clients ll b there built out of this code.

Check out these Usecases. link: http://etherpad.com/ep/about/product#
Atleast the last two ones ll b useful for us in future workings ..(hope so any new dev proj from us soon).

This appealed me a lot.
Wats your say?

My new assignment.....

From coming December ,I will be working for a project to provide RESTful interface from Server side using apache Cxf framework with Spring DM Server.

Though discouraged by my many of my Frenz words( Why not simple RoR? Why not MS' WCF) decided to explore on this mission providing Restful service using Java Web framework/containers (as it aligns with my work @ my office :) )

Starting up today ,with my first question - Osgi(Spring DM Server) vs non Osgi frameworks?

Shall post my learnings in this assignment from now on....

Our Team's Official blogsite ....

We are few guyz out in Bangalore all in the disguise of "Software Engg" in tech companies here.
With expertise on our current doings , we do have great passion to learn things & apply those to our applications.Thereby wished to acknowledge our efforts(ourselves :) ) and share among others. Wishing to be recognisable figures among developer community.

Thats all about our Collective Force now.
This is just our start on Blogger to do share few of our learnings and developed applications/scripts .

Two guyz from mobile application/system development domain.
One guy with dirted hands in Microsoft's product development technologies .(currently with silverlight).
One from Embedded domain and another blessed(??) with mediocrity and desire to emerge in par with these folks.

We assure you that we start now to make a positive note among developer community with our few contributions now on.

Stay Tuned...
