[Pharo-project] Comparison of Aida/Web, Seaside and Iliad web frameworks

by Janko MivÅ¡ek

Dear Smalltalkers, Few months ago I started a comparison of Aida, Seaside and Iliad web frameworks, with initial goal to check the strengths and weaknesses of Aida to draw a direction for future Aida development. But later I came to idea (and was encouraged also by Stef and others) to improve it and make this comparison public, therefore for all of you. I then invited few Iliad and Seaside guys to help balance the comparison, but unfortunately Seasiders were not willing to join, with their stated reason that spreadsheet of comparative features is not the best way to do such comparison. My answer is that a form of spreadsheet is a simplest start of such comparison. This feature list and check marks can be later a foundation for some more advanced comparison. We need to start from somewhere and such checkmarked spreadsheet is easiest to achieve in a shortest time. So, now I'm inviting all of you to take a look at this Google Docs spreadsheet and comment it. This way we will come at least one step closer to so needed comparison: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Atnb1W9vuq9ndGRTUFIzT3VON0lTQ3Jxdl… Best regards Janko -- Janko MivÅ¡ek Aida/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si
